Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Friday questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s silence on Operation Sindoor and remarks attributed to US President Donald Trump, while taking issue with the Prime Minister’s address in the Rajya Sabha on Thursday evening.In a post on X, Ramesh referred to Trump’s repeated claims that he had intervened to halt Operation Sindoor on May 10, 2025.

He said the Prime Minister “answered none of the serious questions” raised during the debate.Ramesh also revisited Modi’s remarks following the June 2020 Galwan Valley clash in eastern Ladakh, in which 20 Indian soldiers were killed. He referred to the Prime Minister’s statement of June 19, 2020, which he described as a “clean chit” to China, and alleged that the issue had not been addressed in Parliament since.
