The session, moderated by Aaj Tak TV's Anjana Om Kashyap, saw questions, answers and rebuttal from the two participants -- BJP's Prakash Javadekar and Congress's Manish Tewari, citing history, geography and even the ethics followed by the India Today Group. Manish Tewari continued, "Sena ki shaurya ka rajneetikaran nahin hona chahiye. Was airstrike the right way to tackle Pakistan? If it was why former prime minister Manmohan Singh refused to attack Pakistan after 26/11? But I know the Congress did it best to isolate Pakistan that time too." Tewari said. Javadekar asked Tewari: Aapse kisne kaha 36 Rafale jets lengey? Tewari replied: Aap hi ki sarkaar ne kaha. Par humaari koshish hai ki sena ki har zaroorat poori ho.
