‘Wo dharm pooch ke marenge to … ‘: Bengal student Sonakshi Bhattacharya’s fiery words on Operation Sindoor go viral; social media hails speech | Jaipur News

NEW DELHI: The usually measured proceedings of the Rajasthan Assembly turned electric on Monday when West Bengal’s Sonakshi Bhattacharya took the mic during the 4th Youth Parliament — and set the House ablaze with a fiery address on national security.
Taking direct aim at Pakistan and terror outfits, Bhattacharya warned against religiously targeted killings and called for decisive retaliation.

Her rallying cry — “Agar koi dharm puch ke maarega, toh hum dharm batake marenge” — drew thunderous applause and has since stormed social media.

The Youth Parliament, an initiative of the Centre, brought together 168 students from 13 states to spar over pressing national and global issues. But it was Bhattacharya’s uncompromising stand on terrorism and her warning that peace cannot survive without preparedness that stole the spotlight.

Speaking in a mock session on national security, she condemned the misuse of religion by terrorists to target innocents and urged India to meet provocation with strength. For many in the House, it wasn’t just a student speech — it was a battle cry.
