Given that terrorist activities are no longer a proxy war, but a well -thoughtful strategy of Pakistan, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Tuesday that “if they are engaged in war”, India will give proper reactions.
Addressing the 20 -year celebrations of the Gujarat urban development story in Gandhinagar, PM Modi said that India believes in ‘Vasudhiv Kutumbakam’, does not want enmity and wants to progress so that it can contribute to global good.
PM Modi said that during his visit to Vadodara, Dahod, Bhuj, Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar in the last two days, he is experiencing patriotism with the roar of the success of Operation Sindoor.
He said that this was a vision to see and this feeling was not only in Gujarat, but in every nook and corner of India and in the heart of every Indian.
Just after the partition of India, remembering the first terrorist attack on India in 1947, PM Modi remembered Sardar Patel’s vision, stressing that the Indian Army should not be stopped until the Pakistan -occupied Kashmir (POK) was rebuilt. He said that Patel’s advice was not followed.
PM Modi insisted that the problem of terrorism has been going on for the last 75 years and the terrorist attack in Pahalgam was another terrible form.
He said that Pakistan repeatedly faced India’s military strength in the war.
“No matter how strong or healthy the body is, even a fork can cause persistent pain – and we have decided that the fork should be removed. During the partition, Mya Bharati was divided into two, and that night, the first terrorist attack on Kashmir was launched by Mujahideen. Did they end up for these 75 years.
He said, “Whenever India and Pakistan went to war, our Indian armed forces -our braves defeated them in a way, which they would never forget. Feeling that they could never win a direct war against India, they moved to the proxy war, instead provided military training and assistance to terrorists,” he said.
Referring to the Operation Sindoor performed by India in response to the Pahalgam terror attack, he said that the terrorists killed in accurate attacks were given the state honor, which proved to be Pakistan’s complexity.
“We cannot call it a proxy war because those killed after May 6 were given state honors in Pakistan. Pakistani flags were wrapped on their coffins, and their military saluted them. It proves that these terrorist activities are not just a proxy war – this is their partial war strategy.
Emphasizing the philosophy of Vasudhiv Kutumbakam of India, the Prime Minister said that India has retained this tradition for centuries and is searching for peaceful and harmonious relations with its neighbors.
He said that India has always advocated peace and stability, frequent challenges have required strong reactions for their strength.

“Today, we are the fourth largest economy in the world. I remember we celebrated to move beyond the sixth to fifth place-a moment that was especially important because we had crossed the nation that ruled for 250 years. Now, as we grow in the fourth place, and even more determination-which you want to give no time to give any time. To create a developed nation, ”he said.
