New Delhi, May 15 -- The Congress on Wednesday announced "Jai Hind" rallies across 15 cities as it accused the Bharatiya Janata Party of politicising Operation Sindoor which was the country's response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. Following a meeting of the Congress Working Committee, party general secretary Jairam Ramesh said the BJP was trying to make the military action a "brand" for itself when the operation belongs to the armed forces and the country. "We condemn the politicisation in the strongest terms. Operation Sindoor is not the brand of any one party. No single party has a monopoly on Operation Sindoor," Ramesh said. The meeting that was attended by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, general secretaries Ramesh, KC Venugopal, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, and Sachin Pilot, among others. Gandhi chaired the proceedings as party chief Mallikarjun Kharge was not present. A CWC resolution was adopted at the meeting which said the attack in Pahalgam raises "deeply troubling" questions about an "apparent intelligence failure". During the meeting, Rahul Gandhi said the Congress must ask how did the Americans come in the picture. The CWC resolution further said, "Adding to this is the deeply problematic statement by US President Donald Trump, who was the first to claim that a ceasefire was brokered with the use of trade threats and pressure on India," and called the government's silence inexplicable and unacceptable. The BJP, however, said that raising questions on an ongoing operation is "irresponsible". "At a time when the nation must speak in one voice, such actions are not just inappropriate, they are irresponsible," BJP leader Sudhanshu Trivedi said....
