Former Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad on Friday took a dig at actor Richa Chadha’s recent tweet referring to the Galwan Valley clash, which recently sparked a controversy. Azad said that whoever insults the army is insulting the country. “We are safe because of the army and those who are making fun of or insulting the army are doing a disservice to the country,” he said.
Speaking to CNN-News18, Azad said, ‘Those abusive forces should not be supported and some leaders may be doing it personally.
In one of her recent tweets, Richa Chadha apparently referred to the deadly Galwan Valley clash in 2020. In the now withdrawn tweet, the actor had written “Galwan sej hi” in response to Northern Army Commander Lt Gen Upendra Dwivedi’s statement. The Indian Army is “awaiting orders from the government” to reclaim Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
20 Indian Army soldiers lost their lives while China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) lost around 35-40 soldiers in the Galwan Valley clash. India And China is locked in a lingering border standoff in eastern Ladakh for over 29 months. Bilateral ties came under severe strain in June 2020 after the skirmish in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh.
Speaking on the Maharashtra-Karnataka border dispute, Azad said, “It is a very old issue like the Northeast and the dispute will continue for a long time.” He lashed out at those leaders who are abusing PM Modi. Of those opposition leaders who are making derogatory or derogatory remarks against PM Modi.”
Without naming Rahul Gandhi, he said, “Leaders who do not know anything wanted their seniors to consult and approve before speaking or doing anything.” Wise leaders were neglected.”
Talking about the possibility of assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir, Azad said, “The situation in Jammu and Kashmir is conducive for holding assembly elections and terrorism cannot be an excuse for delaying them.”
