New Delhi, Feb 14: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday launched a scathing attack on his Telangana counterpart K Chandrasekhar Rao for seeking proof of the 2016 surgical strike by the Indian Army.
“On the anniversary of the Pulwama attack, the opposition has again insulted our martyrs by questioning the surgical strike,” tweeted the Assam Chief Minister. The Congress and KCR are in competition to prove their loyalty to the Gandhi family,” he said in his tweet.
He also shared a videographic evidence of the surgical strike by the Indian army on twitter.
Dear KCR garu, here is the videographic evidence of the surgical strike by our brave army.
In spite of this you question the valor of our Armed forces and insult them. Why are you so desperate to attack and malign our Army?

Meanwhile, Anurag Thakur said that the Words of Congress and TRS sound similar to that of Pakistan.
“Words of Congress and TRS sound similar to that of Pakistan. Whenever elections come, they do new experiments – be it hijab or surgical strike because they can’t compete with BJP as far as development is concerned. Questioning surgical strike shows the mindset of KCR,” said Anurag Thakur.
Addressing a press briefing on Sunday, KCR defended Rahul Gandhi for raising questions over the surgical strike citing that the BJP spread false propaganda. In response, Sarma accused KCR of insulting the martyrs in a bid to prove his “loyalty” to the Gandhi family.
Telangana CM is furious & nervous. Huzurabad mein hui surgical strike ke baad, huzur ke bol bigde nazar aate hain. If this is the condition after loss in one election, it clearly shows that ground beneath KCR and TRS is sinking in Telangana: Union Minister Anurag Thakur pic.twitter.com/wjxXk7p5s5

“There is nothing wrong with Rahul Gandhi asking for proof of the surgical strike. What was wrong? Even now I am asking. Let the government of India show. It is their responsibility. There are apprehensions among the people. The BJP makes false propaganda. That’s why people are asking for proof. In a democracy, you are not a monarch. You are not a king,” KCR told the media.
