Prithviraj Chavan Refuses to Apologise Over Operation Sindoor Comment

Congress leader Prithviraj Chavan has refused to apologise for his remark on Operation Sindoor – that India was "defeated on Day 1" of the military engagement with Pakistan in May. "I will not say sorry… haven't said anything wrong and have nothing to apologise for," he said Wednesday.

"I don't want to say anything more now… but I will not apologise. There is no need… I did not make any wrong comment," Chavan insisted, adding fuel to a fire that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party will, no doubt, use to excoriate its arch-rival, the Congress, in Parliament this week.
