TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ The Shiv Sena on Wednesday continued its assault on the Centre over the mutilation of Indian soldiers by the Pakistani Army, putting onus on Prime Minister Narendra Modi to reveal how serious he is about tackling the matter on an international level.
“The Prime Minster should disclose as to how many countries are supporting us on this issue. Former defence minister Manohar Parrikar’s previous remark on such issues and his resignation from his post indicates how serious the government is to tackle this issue,” said the Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamana.
The editorial further slammed present Defence Minister Arun Jaitley saying that just by making fancy statements the problem is not going to end, and it is high time to take serious action on the same.
“This is the same party ruling in the Centre who declared during the Congress regime to behead 10 Pakistanis if they behead one of ours. The regime has changed, but no change can be witnessed in the barbaric condition of our soldiers,” it said.
It further said that the surgical strike carried out along the Line of Control (LoC) was not enough to respond to Pakistan’s attack on Uri, Machil and Pathankot, adding that the BJP may consider the Uttar Pradesh Assembly Election victory as one their greatest achievements, but the loss of the lives of Indian soldiers is the greatest defeat of the country.
