Today, 22 years after the attack, the Indian Parliament observed a minute's silence to pay tribute to the martyrs who sacrificed their lives to protect the Parliament building. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, BJP national president JP Nadda, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, and Congress Parliamentary Party Chairperson Sonia Gandhi, along with other leaders, observed the silence in unison.
The attack on the Parliament was a well-coordinated operation that was intended to destabilize the Indian government. The terrorists were heavily armed and managed to break into the Parliament premises, but were killed by the Indian security forces before they could cause any further damage. The attack caused a great sense of shock and terror in the nation and it was only after the attack that the government of India took stringent measures to improve the security of the Parliament.
The attack on the Indian Parliament was also a wake-up call for the government to take stronger action against terrorism. The Indian government took immediate action and launched ‘Operation Parakram’, a massive military operation against Pakistan. The operation was launched in response to the attack on the Parliament and the subsequent attacks in Jammu and Kashmir. The operation lasted for nearly two years and resulted in the death of hundreds of soldiers and civilians.
The Parliament attack of 2001 had a deep impact on the Indian nation. It showed the fragility of the Indian democracy and the security of the nation. The nation stands united in honouring the martyrs who lost their lives in the attack and to remember the sacrifice of the security personnel who bravely fought to protect the Parliament building. 22 years later, the nation still stands strong in its commitment to safeguard the democracy and freedom of its people.
