New Delhi. During Operation Sindoor, India rejected the mediation of a third party. Following this statement by Pakistan Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, now India’s Union Minister Kiren Rijiju has reacted to the Congress and the opposition without naming it. Rijiju questioned, will people who campaigns to tarnish India’s image will apologize? In fact, US President Donald Trump has been repeatedly claiming that he intercepted the struggle between India and Pakistan. At the same time, India is refuting this from the day of ceasefire.

Congress MP and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi has raised questions on the government many times regarding Trump’s mediation claim. Rahul Gandhi had said that the government should respond to this. Apart from Rahul Gandhi, many other leaders of the opposition were also questioning the government about the US President. While the army also denied that the US had no role in the ceasefire after DGMO level talks. Despite this, the opposition was constantly making a stir on this.
Rahul Gandhi had even said that in the Prime Minister Parliament, say that Donald Trump did not mediate during Operation Sindoor. When Operation Sindoor was being discussed in Parliament, PM Modi had clearly replied to Rahul Gandhi’s talk and said that no country in the world asked India to stop Operation vermilion. Modi had also told that on the night of 9 May, US Vice President JD Vance tried 3-4 times to talk to me on the phone but I could not talk to him due to busyness.
