Rathore’s statement came after the Sibal questioned air strike. Earlier, Sibal had taken to Twitter and questioned PM Modi if the international media was reporting incorrect facts about the number of casualties in Balakot strikes. "Modiji, is international media- New York Times, London based Jane's Information Group, Washinton Post, Daily Telegraph, The Guardian, Reuters reporting no proof of militant losses at Balakot pro-Pakistan? You are guilty of politicising terror (sic)?"
Besides Sibal, opposition leaders Digvijaya Singh, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee have also raised questions over the number of casualties in IAF strikes in Balakot.
