'Soft Support For Terror': BJP Slams Rahul Gandhi's Silence On Capt Smit Machchhar

The BJP has launched a sharp attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his alleged silence on Captain Smit Machchhar, who is being hailed for averting a possible terror attack after a FlyDubai cockpit incident. BJP leaders, including Pradeep Bhandari and Sudhanshu Trivedi, claimed Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi have not publicly praised the Indian captain even after more than 90 hours. The BJP accused the Congress of vote-bank politics, while highlighting praise for Captain Smit from Prime Minister Narendra Modi and several global leaders.
