The Congress has renewed its demand for a debate on the alleged Chinese incursion across the Line of Actual Control ( LAC) in the upcoming Budget Session of Parliament.
The party said for security interest of the nation, the Government should not shy away from talking about China in the Parliament.
The Congress on Saturday said it will seek cooperation from other Opposition parties to press for a discussion on this issue.
The [party alleged that the Modi Government did not heed to Congress' demand for a discussion in Parliament on this issue session after session and sought to know whether the government will continue to keep the country in the dark or tell the nation the truth about China's "illegal occupation".
"We demand immediate discussion on this issue in Parliament, in the forthcoming Budget session. India's territorial integrity and sovereignty is at stake and we should do everything possible, together to uphold it.
“Enough of 'clean chits' to China, now, the time has come for the Modi government to come clean on China," AICC Media and Publicity chief Pawan Khera said at an AICC Press conference.
Congress claimed that recent reports say that India has lost access to 26 out of 65 patrolling points (PP) which was not the case before May 2020 and the subsequent Galwan clash where 20 bravehearts sacrificed their lives.
"The Congress asks why after 17 rounds of military talks, the Modi government has not ensured the status quo ante even after almost three years of the Galwan clash? Given the fact that a senior police official has flagged this highly sensitive issue, will the Modi government tell the nation why it has conceded India's rightful hold on our territory to China," he asked.
Alleging that the document has exposed the government's "weak-kneed approach" towards China, Khera asked the Prime Minister to spell out if he is still "afraid" of China or still "loves" the country.
