Chandigarh Pradesh Congress Committee president HS Lucky has criticised the recent remarks made by a Madhya Pradesh minister about Colonel Sofiya Qureshi.

The Congress leader accused the BJP of trying to take the credit of the valour of the Indian Army to divert attention from its failures. “The Army belongs to the nation, not to any political party. By making such statements, BJP leaders are not only demeaning the soldiers’ bravery but are also undermining the dignity of national institutions,” he added.
