The government called an all-party meeting after Operation Sindoor. In this meeting, leaders of all parties praised the airstrike and said that they would support every decision of the government and every action of the army. In this meeting held after Operation Sindoor, the national president of the main opposition party Congress and leader of opposition in Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge raised the issue of Prime Minister Narendra Modi not attending this meeting.
Kharge also said in the meeting that whatever work you are doing, keep doing it. We are with you.

The Congress President, who came out after the all-party meeting, said that we have heard what we were told. We have supported the government.
