ISLAMABAD: Former Indian Foreign Minister Yashwant Sinha has accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of exploiting national security incidents for political gain, alleging that the Pahalgam attack was deliberately orchestrated to influence the upcoming Bihar elections.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sinha highlighted a pattern of terror attacks timed strategically before elections, citing previous incidents like Pulwama and Uri as examples used to sway public opinion in Modi\u2019s favor.<\/p>\n

In a recent interview, Sinha questioned the suspicious timing of the Pahalgam attack, suggesting it was part of a broader political strategy aimed at boosting Modi\u2019s electoral prospects.<\/p>\n

He recalled how the Pulwama attack occurred shortly before elections and was leveraged to stir nationalist sentiment, while the subsequent \u201csurgical strikes\u201d following the Uri attack were also employed as campaign tools.<\/p>\n

Political Exploitation of Security Incidents<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Sinha sharply criticized Modi\u2019s approach to national security, accusing him of politicizing the sacrifices of security personnel for electoral advantage. He pointed out that Modi has even sought votes in the name of Pulwama \u201cmartyrs\u201d during election rallies, framing terror attacks as platforms to galvanize support.<\/p>\n

According to Sinha, the Pahalgam attack\u2019s main purpose was not just terrorism but to create an atmosphere conducive to Modi\u2019s political narrative ahead of the Bihar polls.<\/p>\n

Defence analysts have also weighed in, arguing that the Modi government has prioritized election preparations over meaningful dialogue with Pakistan following recent ceasefire agreements.<\/p>\n

They contend that Modi\u2019s aggressive policies have contributed to India\u2019s regional isolation, hindering peace efforts.<\/p>\n

Calls for Genuine Peace Efforts<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Sinha\u2019s remarks come amid growing calls for a sincere and constructive engagement between India and Pakistan to resolve ongoing tensions.<\/p>\n

Critics urge leaders to avoid using national security issues as political tools and instead focus on promoting lasting peace and stability in the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
