Congress Demands PM Modi To Chair all-party meet 'Delhi Blast'

The Congress on Thursday demanded that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should immediately chair an all-party meeting in the aftermath of the Delhi blast and asked whether the “new normal doctrine” defined by the government following the Pahalgam attack of treating any future terror strike as an ‘act of war’ stands.

The opposition party also demanded that the Winter Session of Parliament, scheduled to start on December 1, be advanced so that there could be a debate



on the incident.

Congress’s media and publicity department head, Pawan Khera, called for fixing accountability and asserted that someone in the government should take responsibility, recalling that the then home minister Shivraj Patil had resigned following the Mumbai terror attack under the UPA.

“The surprising thing is that after 48 hours, it was the Cabinet that announced that this was a terror attack,” Khera said at a press conference.
