Karnataka’s Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has made it clear that he is not in favor of war with Pakistan, stating his position amidst heightened tensions following the Pahalgam terror incident. Siddaramaiah emphasized the need for enhanced security measures in Kashmir to address the current situation. Additionally, he reiterated his government’s dedication to complying with the central government’s directive to deport Pakistani individuals living in Karnataka. The Chief Minister’s stance comes as a response to the escalating India-Pakistan tensions following the recent terrorist attack. Siddaramaiah’s comments have drawn criticism from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which has taken a different stance on the issue. The BJP has pushed back against Siddaramaiah’s views, highlighting the need for a strong response to Pakistan’s alleged involvement in supporting terrorism. The differing opinions on how to handle the situation reflect the complex dynamics surrounding India’s relationship with Pakistan. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the central government and state authorities will navigate the challenges posed by the current crisis.
