Pakistan's parliamentary session on military conflict with India faces embarrassment over low legislator turnout. Defence Minister Khawaja Asif convened the special session to reinforce the government's narrative regarding the 2025 confrontation, described as 'Marka-e-Haq' or Battle of Truth. Pakistan's response operation, 'Bunyanum Marsoos', was conducted on May 10 following Indian strikes under Operation Sindoor on May 7. The sparse attendance undermined efforts to boost public confidence in the military response. Pakistan claims 11 military personnel and 40 civilians were killed during the confrontation, while India reported destroying nine terror launchpads and eliminating over 100 terrorists. The low parliamentary participation reflects potential domestic political divisions over the government's handling of the military engagement and its communication strategy.
