Jairam Ramesh seeks Kargil-style review of Operation Sindoor after General Chauhan remarks
General Chauhan’s latest remarks, coupled with his earlier revelations, had raised understandable concern and warranted a structured review of the operation, says Congress leader Jairam Ramesh
Former Chief of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan made fresh remarks on Operation Sindoor, prompting Congress leader Jairam Ramesh to call for a comprehensive official review of the military operation on August 26, 2026. General Chauhan’s latest revelations, along with his earlier disclosures, have raised understandable concerns, according to Ramesh, who serves as Congress general secretary (communications).
He pointed out that General Chauhan’s statements in a media interview given in Singapore on May 30, 2025, have reignited discussions about the operation. Earlier, during the Kargil Review Committee, four days after the Kargil War ended, top security analyst K. Subrahmanyam chaired a committee whose report was tabled in Parliament on February 23, 2000.
Ramesh emphasized that headline-grabbing revelations from media interviews or lectures should not replace a structured and comprehensive review like the one carried out by the Subrahmanyam committee.
