In A Statement, The Former PM Also Sought To Remind The Government That “Disinformation Is No Substitute For Diplomacy Or Decisive Leadership”.
“At This Moment, We Stand At Historic Cross-Roads. Our Government’s Decisions And Actions Will Have Serious Bearings On How The Future Generations Perceive Us. Those Who Lead Us Bear The Weight Of A Solemn Duty. And In Our Democracy, That Responsibility Rests With The Office Of The Prime Minister. The Prime Minister Must Always Be Mindful Of The Implications Of His Words And Declarations On Our Nation’s Security As Also Strategic And Territorial Interests,” Singh Said.

He added, “China Is Brazenly And Illegally Seeking To Claim Parts Of Indian Territory Such As The Galwan Valley And The Pangong Tso Lake By Committing Multiple Incursions Between April 2020 Till Date. We Cannot And Will Not Be Cowed Down By Threats And Intimidation Nor Permit A Compromise With Our Territorial Integrity. The Prime Minister Cannot Allow Them To Use His Words As A Vindication Of Their Position And Must Ensure That All Organs Of The Government Work Together To Tackle This Crisis And Prevent It From Escalating Further.”
The Senior Congress Leader Also Reminded The Government “That Disinformation Is No Substitute For Diplomacy Or Decisive Leadership. The Truth Cannot Be Suppressed By Having Pliant Allies Spout Comforting But False Statements”.
“We Call Upon The Prime Minister And The Government To Rising To The Occasion, To Ensure Justice For Col. B. Santosh Babu And Our Jawans Who Have Made The Ultimate Sacrifice And Resolutely Defended Our Territorial Integrity. To-Do Any Less Would Be A Historic Betrayal Of The People’s Faith,” He Said.
