Operation Sindoor: Government names fallen soldiers amid political accusations
The Indian government has revealed the names of six soldiers who died during Operation Sindoor, a year after stating no soldiers were harmed. This action follows accusations from the BJP against the Congress for allegedly spreading 'sinister lies' and attempting to undermine the armed forces. Left-leaning outlets highlight the timing of the revelation and the controversy surrounding the defence minister's previous statement, while right-leaning outlets focus on the Defence Ministry's rejection of allegations.
