Press Release

CPI(M) in the All Party Meeting

 

On behalf of the CPI(M), John Brittas, leader of the Party in the Rajya
Sabha attended the All Party Meeting convened by the Government of India on
8 May 2025, in the wake of 'Operation Sindoor'.

 

John Brittas regretted the absence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the
second consecutive time in such an important All Party Meeting. He urged the
government to call an All Party Meeting with the participation of the Prime
Minister and also a special session of Parliament.

 

In the context of the government reporting that the 'intended objectives of
the Operation are achieved', Brittas pointed out that given the past
experience, it is doubtful, if such military action will be able to target
and eliminate terrorist groups. He emphasized that the government should
continue pursuing diplomatic actions and build international pressure to
bring the terrorists to book. It should see that the situation does not
escalate.

 

He urged the government to ensure the protection of the people in the border
areas and also to provide all required assistance to those who are affected
by the situation. He asked the government to place all the facts before the
people and counter the spread of all kinds of misinformation.

 

Brittas also stated that it is the duty of the government to curb the spread
of hate and underlined that terror has no religion. War against terrorism
cannot be conducted without fighting the spread of hate.

 

He lauded the people of Pahalgam and Kashmir for showing the path to the
entire country by unitedly condemning terrorism with compassion, even after
suffering from all its ill-effects. He demanded that the government lead an
all Party delegation to Kashmir at an appropriate time, to stand by the
suffering people of Kashmir.
