In the wake of the Pahalgam terrorist attack that claimed 26 lives, Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to take decisive action, even suggesting the merger of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) with India. Drawing parallels to Indira Gandhi's leadership, Reddy emphasized the need for a strong response to terrorism. He criticized the BJP for allegedly exploiting national security issues for political gain and questioned the effectiveness of intelligence agencies during the Pulwama attack. Reddy also expressed skepticism about the authenticity of the Balakot airstrikes, accusing the Modi government of prioritizing electoral victories over national security. His remarks have intensified political debates on India's counterterrorism strategies and the government's handling of cross-border threats. (PC: Pinterest)
