Team News Riveting
Solapur, April 30
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday asserted that his government has adopted a bold new approach on national security and believes in hitting terrorists at their homes instead of sending dossiers that was the practice under the Congress rule.
Addressing an election rally here on Tuesday as part of his campaign in Maharashtra, Modi hit at NCP (SP) president Sharad Pawar again and accused the Congress-led opposition of circulating artificial intelligence-powered fake videos on social media in its fight against the saffron party. He said the BJP-led government’s approach on dealing with the terror has seen a drastic change to what was followed during the Congress regime.
“Unlike the practice during the Congress rule of sending dossiers to Pakistan after the 2008 Mumbai attacks, the BJP-led government takes terrorists head on,” the BJP’s star campaigner said.
“During the Congress regime, the news headlines were about India handing over another dossier to Pakistan about terror activities. It used to be big news. Some of our friends in the media used to clap after any such dossier was sent,” Modi said at an election rally in central Maharashtra’s Latur.
“Today, India doesn’t send dossiers. ‘Aaj Bharat ghar mein ghus ke marta hai’ (Today, India enters homes of terrorists and hits them hard),” he said, highlighting the anti-terror operations undertaken by his government after assuming office in 2014 and added this approach marks the rise of a ‘New Bharat’. “The headlines in Naya Bharat are: Mission LOC, India punishes Pakistan through surgical strikes,” the Prime Minister said.
Modi claimed the INDIA bloc has come up with a “formula” whereby the parties in the opposition alliance will get the Prime Minister’s post for one year each if they come to power.” “Some people want to make the PM in instalments. They hey have decided to have a PM each year,” he added.
