"Ghastly statement by CWC member Channi belittling the valour of our brave soldiers is no less a crime and an insult to the nation. Channi's shameful statement on the attack on our Air Force personnel in Poonch calling their valour as a stunt shows the bankruptcy and frustration of Channi," he said.
"The nation will not forgive him. He should hang his head in shame.
The Congress and its allies should come clean on this issue. They should publically disassociate from his statement and ask him to apologise to the nation immediately," Jakhar said in a post on X.
BJP leader Manjinder Singh Sirsa called his statement appalling and disrespectful towards soldiers. Sirsa condemned Channi's statement and said, “Congress is saying that he was martyred because of elections.
This mentality is not just appalling but disrespectful to those who serve our nation." “Pakistan and Rahul Gandhi continue to support each other while Congress is belittling the sacrifice of our Jawans," he added. Milestone Alert!
