Madhubani (Bihar) [India], November 6 (ANI): Union Minister Amit Shah on Thursday stated that Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched Operation Sindoor days after the Pahalgam terror attack, unlike the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government, during which “terrorists would come from Pakistan, detonate bombs and leave” without facing any action.
He also referred to the Pahalgam attack in which 27 people, mostly tourists, were killed by Pakistan-sponsored terrorists.
“During the Congress regime, under the Sonia-Manmohan regime, Pakistani terrorists would come, detonate bombs and leave. No action would be taken against them. Instead, they were treated to Biryani. Just recently, our men were killed in Pahalgam. PM Modi, in just 20 days, launched Operation Sindoor, in which we (Security forces) entered Pakistan territory and wiped out the terrorists… Now, if terrorists fire bullets, they will be answered with shells…,’ Amit Shah said.
PM Modi is going to build a defence corridor in Mithila. Now, every shell that hits Pakistan will be made in my Mithila region,” Amit Shah said here at a public meeting.
Earlier today, Amit Shah accused Rahul Gandhi of “dividing” the Army along religious and caste lines, days after the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha came under fire over his “10% of the population have control over the Army” remarks. He also targeted RJD Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav.
The senior BJP leader also hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for launching a crackdown on the “anti-national” Popular Front of India.
“PM Modi has made the country safe. The PFI (Popular Front of India) even reached Phulwarisharif. It was an anti-national organisation… Tell me, should PFI be banned or not?” Amit Shah asked the crowd.
“From Kerala to Phulwarisharif, PM Modi put everyone from PFI behind bars. Lalu says they should be released. Lalu ji, they will never be released, remember my words,” Shah said here at a public meeting.
In September 2022, the Ministry of Home Affairs declared Popular Front of India (PFI) and its affiliates an ‘Unlawful Association’.
“Rahul Gandhi just made a statement about how many people from a certain caste our religion are in our Army. Shame on you, Rahul Gandhi. You’re dividing the Army on the basis of religion and caste. We respect brave soldiers of any caste or religion who join the army,” Amit Shah added.
In an election campaign rally on Tuesday, Rahul Gandhi had claimed that the Indian Army is “under the control of 10 per cent of the country’s population,” apparently referring to the dominance of upper castes in the institution.
Bihar recorded 60.41 per cent polling in the first phase of assembly polls, according to Election Commission data at 8 pm. The polling percentage is higher than the overall voting percentage recorded in the previous three assembly polls in the state. (ANI)
