Earlier today, taking stock of the situation in Jammu and Kashmir in the aftermath of the grisly attack on the CRPF personnel, a Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) meeting led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, decided to take diplomatic action to isolate Pakistan on an international level. Briefing the media after attending the CCS meet, senior Cabinet minister Arun Jaitley announced that the Most Favoured Nation (MFN) status to Pakistan stands withdrawn.
Claiming that he understands the rage brewing in the country, PM Modi today promised vengeance against the plotters of the ghastly attack. He reassured that the country’s Armed Forces have been given free rein to exact revenge from Pakistan. PM further warned that the perpetrators committed a huge mistake to attack the Indian armed forces, for which they will have to pay a huge price.
PM Modi continued his fierce attack on Pakistan in his rally in Jhansi. He excoriated Pakistan for nurturing Terrorist groups on its land. Modi said that Pakistan which is going through a severe economic crisis and it roams around the world with a begging bowl will get a befitting reply not just from India but from the entire world who have called out their complicity in the terror attacks.
