Amid the ongoing India-Pakistan tensions, Parliament's Standing Committee on External Affairs will be briefed by India's Foreign Secretary.
After a detailed press briefing done by the defence officials on Operation Sindoor, Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed his views and lauded appreciation towards the forces. PM Modi, while addressing the nation, said that India will act strongly if there are any terror attacks in the future. Moreover, the Prime Minister also thanked all the defence personnel for their unwavering work during the tensions between the two nations. The Prime Minister also went on to say "If another terrorist attack against India is carried out, a strong response will be given," on Monday.
However, after media briefings by the defence officials and PM Modi's speech to the people of India, FS Misri will be briefing the parliamentary panel which is being led by veteran Congress leader and MP Shashi Tharoor.
As per PTI, Parliamentary committee's chairman and Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said that the Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri will brief the panel on Monday on the recent developments that have been taking place in the current India-Pakistan situations, which were marked by India striking terror sites in Pakistan followed by days of intense military action between the two countries before they agreed to stop firing.
Misri has regularly been seen briefing the committee on a host of foreign affairs issues, including developments in India's neighbourhoods like Bangladesh, and in its ties with Canada.
With the rising tensions from the past few days, things were looking to escalate into a full-fledged war as both countries agreed on a ceasefire on Saturday, May 10, 2025.
In the India-Pakistan decades-long conflict, both countries have fought two wars over Kashmir. With the ongoing situation, things have started to settle down as of now, but the tensions between the two nations are expected to be intense for quite some time.
