Madhya Pradesh Minister Vijay Shah landed in controversy after referring to Colonel Sofia Qureshi as a “sister of terrorists”. The opposition has demanded strict action against the BJP minister for his comments on the officer who briefed the media on ‘Operation Sindoor‘ launched by the Indian armed forces to strike terrorists in Pakistan.
While addressing a gathering near Indore on Tuesday, Shah said, “Those people (terrorists) who had wiped out the sindoor (vermilion) of our sisters (in the Pahalgam terror attack)..We avenged these ‘kate-pite’ people by sending their sister to destroy them.”

“They (terrorists) killed our Hindu brothers by making them remove their clothes. PM Modi ji responded by sending their (terrorists’) sister in an Army plane to strike them in their houses. They (terrorists) made our sisters widows, so Modiji sent the sister of their community to strip them and teach them a lesson,” he said.
The minister later apologised for his comments, which he said were made in jest.
“Ï love India with my full heart. Sofia sister fulfilled national duty…she did not see her community and took revenge for the Phalagam terror attack. Sofia sister is above my real sisters,” Shah told ABP News.
Congress shared the video of Shah on X and asked whether the BJP agrees with the minister’s “low thinking”? Madhya Pradesh Congress president Jitu Patwari demanded an answer from Chief Minister Mohan Yadav on Shah’s comment.
