Admiring the army forces for their role in humanitarian assistance, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said Army had great worked during the floods in Jammu and Kashmir two years ago without creating and issue.
Our jawans were also served those who hurled stones at them by saving their lives. While he steered clear of any direct reference to the surgical strikes, Modi said Indian soldiers let their acts of bravery do the talking. He further said he had sufficiently responded to critics who accused him of sleeping in the wake of the Pathankot and Uri terror attacks.
He added that three years ago there were displeasing flood in Srinagar which even difficult to manage for the government. That time our Army had become a boon for the regions’ people who took away from them troubled waters. During the rescue operation, they were also serving those who pelt stones at them without any complaint. When humanity needs they serve their countrymen with total dedication.
We have given a perfect reply to the people who were thinking Modi is sleeping
While addressing the gathering of ex-servicemen, war widows, and students, he referred to the army action and said,” Our soldiers don’t talk; they just do their act of bravery”. He further said people accused me that Modi is sleeping and not doing anything. But, this is the surgical strike is the right reply to those.
On the other hand, Modi’s support for defence Minister Manohar Parrikar is impetuous and cleared as the top leadership of the party backed him against the charge of politicising the surgical strikes.
