Why is Modi govt. deaf to demands of accountability for Pulwama attacks even after four years, asks Gaurav Gogoi

Deputy leader of the Congress in Lok Sabha, Gaurav Gogoi, has demanded from the BJP Government a white paper on the Pulwama terror attack and urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to break his silence and fix responsibility on those whose failure led to the death of 40 jawans.

Neither the Prime Minister nor the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has any answers on the allegations made by former Jammu and Kashmir Governor Satya Pal Malik, he said. Mr. Malik alleged that the government denied aircraft for Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF)‘s travel, forcing them to go by road to Srinagar which led to their death in February 2019.

“The Prime Minister is always busy using even the martyrdom of the soldiers for his politics, but he should now break his silence as he was accountable to the people and also the families of the 40 jawans who died in the attack,” he said, speaking to reporters in Hyderabad along with the Telangana Congress president A. Revanth Reddy.
