Patna (Bihar) [India], May 12 (ANI): Rashtriya Janata Dal MP Manoj Jha demanded a special parliament session from the Union Government over US President Donald Trump's recent mediation proposal over the Kashmir issue.
He said that a message shall be given to the American president by calling a special session, and asked who told President Trump to bring up the Kashmir issue.
The RJD MP emphasised that Kashmir is the 'historic heritage' of India. He stated that Trump likes "chaudhrahat" and a special session should be called, and the whole world gets a message.
"A special session should be called and the American President must be given a message. Who told you to bring up the Kashmir issue? We have our own agreements...it is our historic heritage...just because you like 'Chaudharahat', you become a self-proclaimed one...a special session should be called and the whole world must get the message", Manoj Jha said.
US President Donald Trump on Sunday offered mediation between India and Pakistan over the Kashmir issue by sharing a post on his Truth Social handle.
President Trump welcomed the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan saying that millions of people could have died if the peace had not been worked out. The US President was making a reference to a potential nuclear fallout between the two nations.
In a post on Truth Social, the US President said, "I am very proud of the strong and unwaveringly powerful leadership of India and Pakistan for having the strength, wisdom, and fortitude to fully know and understand that it was time to stop the current aggression that could have led to the death and destruction of so many, and so much. Millions of good and innocent people could have died! Your legacy is greatly enhanced by your brave actions."
Trump continued to hold on to the claim that the US had helped broker peace and offered to mediate for a solution on Kashmir.
"I am proud that the USA was able to help you arrive at this historic and heroic decision. While not even discussed, I am going to increase trade, substantially, with both of these great Nations. Additionally, I will work with you both to see if, after a "thousand years," a solution can be arrived at concerning Kashmir. God Bless the leadership of India and Pakistan on a job well done!!!"
India has time and again rejected any third-party intervention on the issue of Jammu and Kashmir and has unequivocally expressed that the region is an integral part of India. (ANI)
