Questioning the “loyalty” of those, who doubted the authenticity of the surgical strike carried out by the Indian Army and sought proofs, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar described the cross-LoC operation as “100% perfect surgical strike” and said that the borders of the country are secure under the Narendra Modi government.
Parrikar also made it clear that there is no need to give out any video of the operation.
Highlighting a news report in which a Pakistani police officer has admitted that surgical strikes did happen, Parrikar said, “There is now no more reason to release video or to give any proof.” Parrikar, who was speaking at a BJP organised public meeting, said that many ex-servicemen have shown willingness to fight on the border if required.
“No one had doubted bravery of our forces ever, but for the first time recently some people are doubting,” he said, maintaining that he would not like to take names.
Parrikar’s statement came just one day after Prime Mnister Narendra Modi warned against “chest thumping” about the strike. “In matters of the country’s defence, I can think tedha (wily),” added Modi.
