PM Modi Slams Congress Over 26/11 | “Acted Under Foreign Pressure,” Says PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi reignited the 26/11 debate, accusing the then Congress government of bowing to foreign pressure after the Mumbai terror attacks. Speaking at the Navi Mumbai Airport inauguration, Modi said the government of the time stopped India’s security forces from striking Pakistan under pressure from another country. His remarks followed former Home Minister P. Chidambaram’s interview admitting international calls for restraint post-26/11 — which he later clarified was misquoted. The Congress and allies hit back, questioning the Modi government’s own actions during Operation Sindoor.
