A heated debate erupted in India's Parliament over Operation Sindoor, the country's military response to the Pahalgam terror attack. External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar and Home Minister Amit Shah firmly denied US President Donald Trump's claims that the US brokered a ceasefire or that trade was used as leverage to end hostilities with Pakistan. Jaishankar clarified there was no phone call between PM Modi and Trump during the conflict, and emphasized that India acted independently, sending a strong message to Pakistan against cross-border terrorism. The government highlighted international support for India's actions, with only three UN member states opposing Operation Sindoor. The ruling party criticized the Opposition for trusting foreign narratives over official Indian statements, asserting a new, assertive approach to national security.
