NEW DELHI: The Congress today expressed serious concern over rising incidents of infiltration along the border with China and asked the Government what was its strategy to deal with national security which was “going through turbulent times”.
It said “unfortunately, it appears that this Government has been caught napping” and has not been able to implement significant accords of recent origin which the UPA Government had signed.
“We were able to contain and control the situation. We say this with great responsibility and restraint but we would be abdicating our responsibilities if we do not say this,” AICC spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi said.
The party took a dig at the Government for not having a full-time defence minister, saying “we either have a reluctant defence minister or a part-time defence minister”.
“National security is going through turbulent times in different facets,” Singhvi said. (AGENCIES)
