Overview

  • Mallikarjun Kharge opened the debate on Operation Sindoor by accusing the government of recurring intelligence failures in Uri, Pathankot, Pulwama and Pahalgam attacks
  • JP Nadda accused Kharge of having “lost his mental balance” while criticizing Prime Minister Modi, triggering strong protests from opposition MPs
  • Facing demands from Kharge and other MPs, Nadda immediately retracted the insult and issued a formal apology to the Leader of the Opposition
  • Nadda also moved to expunge Kharge’s critical remarks on the prime minister as remarks made “in the flow of emotions”
  • Under Rajya Sabha rules, members can seek to remove unparliamentary remarks and the chair is set to consider motions to strike both leaders’ contentious comments from the record
