Border Woes Dominate Parliament: Badal Slams Opposition, AAP Seeks Answers on “Operation Sindoor”
The Lok Sabha witnessed heated exchanges on Wednesday, July 30, 2025, with the focus squarely on the recent military action and its impact on Punjab. Shiromani Akali Dal leader Harsimrat Kaur Badal targeted opposition MPs for questioning the government’s decision to halt military operations.
Badal underscored the immense hardships faced by residents in Punjab’s border areas during the conflict. She emphasized the need for a unified approach to support those affected.
Aam Aadmi Party MP Gurmeet Singh Meet Hayer, however, took a different tack. He criticized the government’s handling of public anxieties surrounding “Operation Sindoor” and its broader implications for Punjab’s foreign relations.
Hayer demanded a comprehensive explanation from the government regarding the operation and its potential consequences for the state’s economy and security. The debate highlights the deep divisions within Parliament on the issue.
This parliamentary clash underscores the crucial need for transparent communication and decisive action to address the concerns of Punjab’s residents and mitigate potential long-term impacts stemming from the recent military action and its fallout. The government’s response will be key to restoring public confidence.
