For CPI(M) Central Committee Office

 

Request for Special Parliamentary Session to Address Ceasefire Developments
and Related National Concerns

 

Dear Shri Narendra Modi ji,

 

I am writing to you in light of recent developments concerning the
de-escalation of tensions and the announcement of a ceasefire between India
and Pakistan. This announcement has brought a sense of relief to all
sections of our nation, as well as to the peace-loving international
community. However, several pressing concerns remain unaddressed -
particularly regarding the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. 

 

The heinous attack on innocent tourists on April 22 has deeply shaken the
conscience of the nation. Yet, the overwhelming unity displayed by citizens
across the country in its aftermath is a powerful and invaluable force. This
solidarity must be harnessed to isolate terrorists and their supporters -
both domestic and foreign.

 

Regrettably, this moment of national unity is being undermined by virulent
campaigns of hatred and jingoism, as well as the spread of misinformation by
certain media outlets and elements on social media. These actions have
caused significant confusion and unrest among the public.

 

Additionally, the announcement by the President of the United States
regarding the ceasefire - made prior to any official statement from our
representatives - has raised serious concerns. It is an avowedly accepted
policy of our country that we settle our disputes bilaterally, without
allowing any third party intervention. Therefore, this situation requires
clear and authoritative clarification from the highest levels of our
government.

 

In the light of these issues, I urge you to convene a special session of the
Parliament, as already requested by the floor leaders of the CPI(M), and
request your personal participation as the Prime Minister in clarifying the
government's position.

 

With regards,

 

 

M. A. Baby

(General Secretary)
