Parliament had a victory speech plan But legislators barely showed
Pakistan held a special parliamentary session to sell its version of the 2025 confrontation with India, branded ‘Marka-e-Haq’, but the meeting was marred by unusually low attendance, embarrassing the government. Defence Minister Khawaja Asif called the session to back the administration’s account of its response operation ‘Bunyanum Marsoos’ on May 10, following India’s ‘Operation Sindoor’ strikes. Pakistan described the wider conflict as lasting from April 22 to May 10 and again called for dialogue despite escalation.
