A political storm erupted in Madhya Pradesh after Minister Vijay Shah made a controversial remark about Colonel Sofiya Qureshi, who led Operation Sindoor following the India-Pakistan ceasefire. Shah’s comment—“We sent a sister of their own to teach them a lesson”—sparked backlash across party lines.

Amid growing criticism, Shah apologized and called Colonel Qureshi “a pride of the nation.”
