Pakistan is exporting terrorists to the world Says PM Modi
KOZHIKODE: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today lashed out at Pakistan and warned its leadership that the Uri attack will not be forgotten and the sacrifice of 18 jawans will not go in vain. Addressing a public rally at Kozhikode in Kerala this evening, Mr. Modi said, India will mount an all-out offensive to isolate Pakistan diplomatically to expose its activities in exporting terror.
Mr. Modi warned the terrorists that India will never forget their attacks in Jammu and Kashmir and Uri and will rest only after defeating terrorism. He said, these terrorists come from our neighboring country and hide there like Osama-Bin-Laden. Mr. Modi said, India has never bowed before terrorism nor will it ever.
Describing terrorism as enemy of the entire humanity, the Prime Minister said, Pakistani leaders are talking about a thousand years war with India and he is prepared to take the challenge. He cautioned the people of Pakistan that their leaders were misleading them by talking about Kashmir when they can’t take care of even the part of Kashmir under Pakistan’s occupation and could not retain East Pakistan which is Bangaldesh today.
The Prime Minister urged the people of Pakistan to ask their leaders why is it that Pakistan is exporting terrorists to the world while India is exporting software. He said that the day is not far off when the people of Pakistan will come out to fight against terrorism.
Mr.Modi said, our destiny is linked with defeating poverty. He said, let both the countries fight against poverty, unemployment and social evils and let us see which country is able to eradicate these evils first.
Mr. Modi said that in the 21st century, India must be free from poverty, unemployment, discrimination, injustice and corruption.
The Prime Minister said, Kerala has the potential of being number one state of the country and BJP and the central government will always be ready to help in this endeavour. He said, India is being recognized the world over as the fastest moving economy. The Prime Minister said that the central government is working to empower all section of the society in the country. This was Mr. Modi’s first rally after Uri terror attack.
Earlier, BJP President Amit Shah alleged that the party workers in Kerala were being subjected to atrocities under the protection of the state government. Speaking on the occasion, Information and Broadcasting Minister M. Venkaiah Naidu told the gathering that the BJP is committed to unity and integrity of the country.
“The people of Pakistan should ask their leaders that India and Pakistan got freedom in the same year, but India exports software and your (Pakistan) leaders are exporting terrorists,” PM Modi said.
PM Modi’s strong response to Uri attack at Kozhikode rally: As it happened
All the countries in Asia are working to make the 21st century as Asia’s century, except one, the prime minister said.”The question is not only about India, this one country is exporting terrorism everywhere. Wherever terrorism is happening across Asia, the affected nations are blaming it on only one nation. Whenever news about terrorism comes, news also comes that the terrorist came from there (Pakistan),” he added.
Asserting that terrorism is the enemy of humanity, Prime Minister Modi called upon the international community to join hands to defeat terrorism.”India has never bowed down in front of terrorism nor will it. Our 18 soldiers sacrificed their lives because of terrorists exported by our neighbouring country.
“There’s anger in the entire country after the Uri attack, and India will never forget this,” he added.Recalling the sacrifices of the 18 soldiers, who were killed in the Uri terror attack, Prime Minister Modi said India is very proud of the armed forces.
“There have been 17 fidayeen attempts by our neighbour, which our brave soldiers foiled. Leaders of the neighbouring country used to say that they will fight for 1,000 years; where are they now,” he asked.The Prime Minister further said more than 110 terrorists have been killed in the past few months by the Indian Army as they were trying to infiltrate.
“I want to inform Pakistan that before 1947, even your leaders used to salute this land. I want to tell people of Pakistan that your leaders are misleading you by talking on Kashmir.
They can’t manage what they have, and they are talking about Kashmir. You can imagine that our neighbour was successful in one incident, and if they would have succeeded in the other 17 times, what would have happened?” he added.
Taking a jibe at Pakistan, Prime Minister Modi said India is exporting engineers all over the world, whereas Islamabad is exporting terrorists.”I want to tell Pakistan that India is ready to fight you. If you have guts, come forward to fight against poverty. Let’s see who wins? Who is able to defeat poverty and illiteracy first, Pakistan or India” he added.
