MUMBAI: A day after Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, leader of opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut demanded a special session of Parliament to discuss Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor , NCP-SP president Sharad Pawar said instead of a special session, NDA govt should convene an all-party meeting to take stock of the situation, reports Prafulla Marpakwar.
"I am not opposed to the idea of a special session of Parliament. However, sensitive and serious matters of national interest should not be debated publicly in Parliament," Pawar said.
In the aftermath of the attack and Operation Sindoor, several opposition members had called for a special session. They have now demanded a discussion on the cessation of hostilities, which was announced first by Washington DC and later by govts of India and Pakistan.
"In larger interest of the country, it will be appropriate if an all-party meeting is convened, so that the deliberations are kept private," Pawar told media persons.
Pawar felt that the central govt should invite all senior military officials and brief the leaders of opposition on the current situation. A former defence minister, Pawar raised an objection over the intervention of US President Donald Trump.
Besides Pawar, several thinkers and opposition members targeted the Narendra Modi govt. "It was wrong on the part of Donald Trump to interfere in the internal matters of India. As per the Simla pact, we are in a position to resolve our own disputes," Pawar said.
