A day after the Chief of Defence Staff Gen Anil Chauhan's revelations on India's loss during the India-Pak conflict, the Congress on Sunday reiterated its demand for an immediate special session of Parliament.

They noted that even Pakistan has convened its Parliament to discuss the developments.

The Congress also demanded that the government take all parties and the nation into confidence and discuss India's defence preparedness and foreign policy strategy after Operation Sindoor.

Citing the example of restraint shown in Pakistan's Parliament during recent tensions between India and Pakistan, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said that the entire nation supports the armed forces and called for unity on issues concerning national security.

"When the clashes broke out between India and Pakistan, a discussion started in Pakistan's Parliament not to speak anything against the country. So long as there is an army, we all are safe. That's why we support the armed forces," he said.
