'Not a single post': BJP attacks Congress over 'silence' on flydubai pilot Smit
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) raised questions about the Congress party's alleged "silence" regarding Indian pilot Smit Machchhar, who prevented his co-pilot's alleged attempt to crash a flydubai flight destined for Tel Aviv. BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi accused the Congress of "supporting terrorism" by not publicly condemning the incident.
He criticized Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, and Rahul Gandhi for lacking compassion and failing to support the valour of Captain Machchhar. Trivedi also criticized the Congress' recent appointment of Imran Masood as the working president of the Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee, citing his controversial remarks against Prime Minister Modi.
