Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Saturday accused the government of misleading the nation on the India-Pakistan conflict and demanded holding a special session of Parliament immediately, following Chief of Defence Staff Gen Anil Chauhan’s acknowledgement of aircraft loss in the hostilities.
Gen Chouhan, however, dismissed as “absolutely incorrect” Islamabad’s claim of downing six Indian jets.
In a post on X, Kharge said his party demands a comprehensive review of India’s defence preparedness by an independent expert committee, on the lines of the survey done by the Kargil Review Committee. PTI
