"PM Modi exposed Pakistani rumours by visiting Adampur Air Base": Priyanka Chaturvedi

Priyanka Chaturvedi questioned whether Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif or Army chief Asim Munir can do the same and land on the air bases destroyed by the Indian Army in Operation Sindoor.

Speaking with ANI, Priyanka Chaturvedi said, "PM Narendra Modi has exposed the rumours spread by Pakistan through its media, the Army Chief, and the DGMO, that Pakistan has attacked the Adampur Air Base... Now the question is whether Asim Munir and Shehbaz Sharif will be able to land in any of their air bases, as the Indian armed forces have destroyed them through Operation Sindoor."

Pakistan have falsely claimed to have destroyed the S-400 air defence system at Adampur air base. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the air base yesterday debunked the neighbouring nation's false claim.

On Donald Trump's repetitive claim of brokering the cessation of fire between India and Pakistan, Priyanka Chaturvedi said Trump is continuously making such statements to win the Nobel Peace Prize.

"By comparing India and Pakistan, he has spoken against our country. On one hand, we have the intelligent India, and on the other, a nonsensical country with nonsensical leaders whose control has been taken away by the Pakistani army. Donald Trump hopes that continuously making such statements will win him the Nobel Peace Prize," Chaturvedi said.

Earlier, in an interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity, Donald Trump said that he had convinced India and Pakistan to go for a peace deal and had pitched trade deals to the two countries. He underscored that trade deals are "much better" than nuclear weapons.

"I think we convinced them (India and Pakistan) to let's have peace and let's go and make trade deals. If we can make trade deals, we like that much better than nuclear weapons, and that was a good thing

Trump made the remarks in response to a question to Hannity, where the latter listed down achievements of American Foreign Policy in the last week.

Donald Trump also remarked, "I don't think there has been a period like this, with a potential nuclear war and two countries that have very good leaders, people I know very well. It was a very important process we got involved with India and Pakistan".

India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 as a decisive military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 people were killed. Indian Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, leading to the death of over 100 terrorists affiliated with terror outfits like the Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.

After the attack, Pakistan retaliated with cross-border shelling across the Line of Control and Jammu and Kashmir as well as attempted drone attacks along the border regions, following which India launched a coordinated attack and damaged radar infrastructure, communication centres and airfields across 11 airbases in Pakistan.

After this, on May 10, an understanding of the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan was announced. (ANI)
