HISAR: With his poll rallies in Haryana and Jammu on Saturday coinciding with the anniversary of the surgical strikes carried out by the Indian armed forces against POK-based terror launch pads in 2016, PM Narendra Modi hit out at Congress, recalling how the opposition party had questioned the strikes seeking proof of the entire operation.
“Today is September 28. Let me remind you that it was on the night of Sept 28 (2016), we had carried out the surgical strike…what did Congress do? They asked our Army for proof of the surgical strike.This is the same Congress which called our Army chief a street goon. Will the patriotic people of Haryana tolerate such a Congress,” the PM said at Hisar. It is often said that every 10th solider in the Indian Army is from Haryana.
In Jammu, the PM said the surgical strikes had left the enemy shaken. He said no one would dare to hatch conspiracies against the country now, as the “mentors of terrorism know Modi will trace them wherever they hide”.
“Today the anniversary of the historic surgical strikes against Pakistan,” PM Modi said. “It was on this day that we hit the enemy right in their homes.” He added the strikes showed the world that this was the new India, that could no longer be taken for granted. “Modi will not spare those who try to disrupt our peace,” he said.
PM Modi said, “Congress stooped so low that it demanded evidence of surgical strikes. He said, “Can we forgive such betrayal? Never!”
While addressing the third Jan Ashirwad rally organised in Hisar, Modi not only said that Congress is in the clutches of ‘Urban Naxalites‘, but also called it communal, deceptive, dishonest, anti-Dalit and reservation, enemy of farmers and Pakistan’s favourite party. “Congress has never truly honoured the sacrifices of our brave soldiers…,” he said.
“Today, the party is hijacked by ‘Urban Naxal’ sympathisers, who welcome infiltrators as ‘vote banks’, while mocking the sufferings of our citizens.”
Citing victories in assembly polls in MP, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, PM Modi said Congress had “inflated” a balloon of lies a lot but the public deflated that balloon by puncturing it with their votes. “Now the same is going to happen in Haryana too,” he said.
