The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has once again made it unequivocally clear: it stands firmly with the Indian government on every step taken against terrorism. AAP’s Chief Spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar backed the move to send all-party delegations abroad, emphasising that it is vital to expose Pakistan-backed terrorism to the world. While supporting unity on national security, she urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to hold an all-party meeting and a special Parliament session to answer the opposition’s questions.
Addressing the media, AAP’s Chief Spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar stated, “The Aam Aadmi Party will always stand with the Government of India in any step it takes against terrorism.” She emphasised, “It has now become necessary to show the world how terrorism is bred and trained in Pakistan. The people of India continue to suffer the consequences of this terrorism, with innocent lives being lost repeatedly.”
Commenting on PM Narendra Modi’s outreach to opposition parties, she stated, “For the first time, PM Narendra Modi has considered taking steps along with opposition parties. This is a very good initiative.” However, she cautioned, “Before that, it is also important that the Prime Minister address the issues being raised domestically. When an all-party meeting is held, the Prime Minister himself should be present so that the issues raised by the opposition can be discussed in depth.”
Priyanka Kakkar also emphasized the need for parliamentary debate, saying, “All opposition parties have long been demanding a special session of Parliament. The Prime Minister should convene this session and allow open discussion on all relevant issues.” She continued, “We also need to discuss how Prime Minister Narendra Modi, over the past 11 years, has travelled extensively to many countries and embraced numerous world leaders, presenting them as his close friends.”
Questioning the central government’s diplomatic clout, she stated, “It is being asked where India fell short that we failed to gather support to prevent Pakistan from receiving an IMF bailout package. What went wrong that, even amid India-Pakistan tensions, many countries openly supported Pakistan? This should not have happened. It is important to discuss these key issues.”
