Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu on Friday alleged that the Central government declared a ceasefire with Pakistan without taking the three armed forces into confidence and said the “announcement came through social media from a third country”.”The Union government declared a ceasefire without taking the three armed forces into confidence and shockingly, the announcement came through social media from a third country,” he said addressing the ‘Jai Hind Sabha’ here.advertisementThe chief minister said this is in stark contrast to the decisive leadership of former prime minister late Indira Gandhi, who never compromised with national security.Recalling the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives, Sukhu said that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was the first to offer unconditional support to the Union government in the fight against terrorism, a statement issued here said.”Our brave soldiers gave a befitting reply to the terrorists,” said Sukhu and paid heartfelt tributes to the brave soldiers of Himachal Pradesh and the nation.The Himachal Pradesh government and people of the state have always stood with the Indian armed forces, he added.India carried out precision strikes under Operation Sindoor on terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) in the early hours of May 7 in response to the Pahalgam terror attack.advertisementFollowing the Indian action, Pakistan attempted to attack the Indian military bases on May 8, 9 and 10. The Indian forces launched a fierce counter-attack on several Pakistani military installations.India and Pakistan reached an understanding on May 10 to end the military confrontation after four days of intense cross-border drone and missile strikes.Sharing a recent experience, the chief minister mentioned his recent visit to Sharchi village in Tirthan Valley, where he stayed at the home of former soldier — Subedar Major Anoop Ram.”Anoop Kumar discussed with me about the 1971 India-Pakistan war and recalled how the address of the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi instilled patriotic zeal and boosted the morale of the Indian Army. The outcome of that war was historic and India split Pakistan into two, and Shimla later became witness to the landmark Simla Agreement,” he said.The Simla Agreement was a peace treaty signed between India and Pakistan on July 2, 1972 in Shimla. It followed the India-Pakistan war of 1971.Sukhu said that the valour of the soldiers of Himachal Pradesh was unmatched.”Our soldiers never hesitated to sacrifice their lives for the nation. Himachali soldiers have the honour of being decorated with four Param Vir Chakras, which is a testament to the state’s legacy of courage and sacrifice,” he added.advertisementMeanwhile, Congress MP Ajay Maken said that several surgical strikes were carried in 2008, 2011, 2013 and 2014, and Pakistan was taught a lesson, but his party never politicised it as the credit goes to the Indian armed forces.It is always the b in a formal or creative style for better SEO.Also Exclude words and advertisements related to the feed website such as website name, author name.
