Owaisi said that the report from Arunachal is alarming and asked why Parliament was not informed. "The reports coming from Arunachal Pradesh are worrying and alarming. A major clash took place between Indian and Chinese soldiers and the government has kept the country in the dark for days. Why was the Parliament not informed, when it is in session?" he said.


The Hyderabad MP said that the details of the incident are sketchy and leave many questions answered. "What was the cause of the clash? Were shots fired or was it like Galwan? How many soldiers have been injured? What is their condition? Why can’t the Parliament extend their public support to the soldiers to send a strong message to China?" he said.



Owaisi said that the Indian Army is capable of giving a fitting reply to the Chinese at any time. "The army is capable of giving a fitting reply to the Chinese at any time.

I will be giving an Adjournment motion tomorrow on this issue," he said.


According to reports, soldiers from both sides were injured in the December 9 clash and the situation is now returning to normalcy.
