According to sources former in charge of erstwhile Andhra Pradesh and Congress leader Digvijay Singh has sparked a controversy by calling Pulwama attack on CRPF jawans an 'Accident.' Meanwhile in a series of tweets Digvijay criticized PM Narendra Modi on the airstrikes by IAF after the February 14th incident. Digvijay tweeted "Some ministers are saying 250 were killed, few BJP leaders are saying about 300 were killed in airstrikes. International media has doubts about this. But the country wants to the actual truth”.
Meanwhile the ex-MP CM slammed Modi for politicizing the issue and gain electoral benefit. Furthermore these comments of the Congress leader drew criticism from union ministers. VK Singh replied that it is unfortunate to call an attack as an accident while Prakash Javadekar questioned what happened to Congress party. The HRD minister said "They are questioning our army and hurting a nation's feelings”.
Moreover the BJP and Congress are on war of words post the Pulwama attack and this is a sensitive issue and the credibility of Indian army is at stake. Apparently it is high time, these leaders focus on other issues instead of dragging armed forces into the pity and pathetic politic fight.
