New Delhi [India]Aug 23 (ANI): Taking a dig at the previous Congress governments at the Center for not taking action against Pakistan for carrying out terror attacks in India, BJP national president JP Nadda on Tuesday said that it is Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Who gave a befitting reply to Pakistan through surgical strike and airstrike
Addressing Modi@20’s program at NDMC auditorium in New Delhi, Nadda said, “For years, there was a Congress government. Pakistan used to carry out terrorist activities whenever it wanted. PM Modi said at a public function in Calicut that a befitting reply will be given for what he has done. Then there was the surgical strike.”
“Pakistan still doesn’t understand. So the second incident happened. This was followed by an air raid. Earlier he (PM Modi) had said – you have made a big mistake and you will have to pay the price. Then there was an airstrike,” Nadda said.
Notably, the Indian Army conducted surgical strikes in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) in September 2016 after 19 soldiers of the Indian Army were killed at the base camp in Uri.
Also, on February 14, Pakistan-based terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) targeted a CRPF convoy on the Jammu-Srinagar highway near Pulwama in south Kashmir, killing 40 CPRF personnel.
A few days later, the Indian Air Force (IAF) carried out an airstrike on a JeM camp in Balakot in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
The air strike was launched in the early hours of 26 February and Pakistan’s attempts to launch an offensive the next day to target Indian military installations in Jammu and Kashmir were foiled by the Indian Air Force.
Referring to the book ‘Modi@20’, the BJP President said that aspects of PM Modi’s style of work include ‘People First, Politics of Unity and Development, Inclusive Economy and the World is One Family’.
Nadda said that Prime Minister Modi has put India’s cultural heritage in front of the world. He further said that PM Modi has taken India’s ‘One District, One Product’ forward to the whole world.
“Modi ji’s popularity is increasing every year, every year. Whenever a survey is conducted, it is seen that the number of seats has also increased and their popularity has also increased. In Modi ji’s 50 years of public life and 20 years of administrative life, corruption could not touch him. He has tried to change many things. Modi ji has also changed the perception towards politics.
