Supriya Sule hits out at BJP for trolling Pahalgam victim’s widow

"One MLA of the BJP in Madhya Pradesh, what was the language he used against Col Qureshi? What kind of trolling they did of the widow of a Pahalgam victim? They want to say everything is going fine. No, it is not. How can you celebrate when the perpetrators of Pahalgam are still free. I also want to say for the record, yes I went on delegations to different countries because of the benevolence of this government but in every country, people welcomed us saying we came from the land of Gandhi, Nehru and Indira Gandhi. This is the legacy they want to tarnish," said Supriya Sule. 

Sule: No country praised India's action, only de-escalation drew appreciation

Supriya Sule said, "I headed a delegation. I want to place on record here, when we visited different countries and said everything they (govt) wanted us to, all this about blood and water not flowing together, terror and dialogue not going simultaneously, but I want to put on record that no country appreciated us for our action but we got praised for de-escalation."

"These people who today talk of Mumbai attacks and say Congress didn't do anything, I want to tell them of the hurt we suffered. When the attacks happened first, it was our Mumbai police that fought back. We never jumped in to take credit. We gave all the credit to the Mumbai police which deserved it. Just because we don't shout to take credit for things the Forces do, these people come here and say anything that comes to their mind and mislead the House."

Supriya Sule slams Tejasvi Surya for ‘insulting’ Armed Forces

NCP-SP MP Supriya Sule said, "Tejasvi Surya said Nehruji, our first PM, never encouraged the Indian Armed Forces and this is for the first time that Indian Forces are being encouraged. This is an insult to the lakhs and lakhs of our Forces who defended India from the time of Nehruji till date."

"Tejasvi Surya needs to be educated in history. When it is a matter of India, you may have your political compulsions and your small mentality, but we keep India above everything else. It was the Congress that was first to say at the all-party meeting after Pahalgam that we, all Opposition, will stand with the government in whatever it wants to do against Pakistan. People like Tejasvi Surya may have petty mindset, we in the Opposition don't. I am deeply hurt with all the false information he has placed in the House today."
