Congress Accuses Modi Government of Politicizing Diplomatic Delegations Amid Operation Sindoor
- The Congress party accused the Modi government of unfairly influencing the selection of representatives involved in the diplomatic mission connected to Operation Sindoor in New Delhi in May 2025.
- This accusation arose because the government accepted only one of four Congress nominees while adding four others without party consultation amid heightened India-Pakistan tensions.
- These delegations, which include leaders like Shashi Tharoor, aim to convey India's position on Pakistan-backed terrorism following strikes in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam.
- Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh alleged the government acted with "malicious intent" and termed the BJP's politics "cheap," emphasizing bipartisan concern on cross-border terrorism.
- The dispute highlights internal Congress fractures and suggests political divisions may hinder unified diplomatic efforts against terrorism on the international stage.
