Chandigarh, No power in the world can separate the ‘Crown of the nation’ Jammu and Kashmir from India. At present, India is not only taking actions against terrorism within the country but is also successful in destroying their outfits across the border. This was stated by the Defense Minister Rajnath Singh while expressing his views on the topic of ‘National Security’ during the third Balramji Das Tandon Memorial Lecture organized by Punjab University on Monday.
In his address, Rajnath Singh emphasized that the whole world is now aware of the scale of India’s strength. In the recent years, there has been a lot of change in the action of the Indian Army. He said that the confidence and morale of the army is high, which can be estimated from this that in the last seven years, they have not allowed a single major terrorist activity in the hinterland. He said that Pakistan-backed terrorism is slowly collapsing in India. In recent years, Pakistan had increased ‘Cease Fire Violation’ on the border, but they have always got a befitting reply from the Indian Army. Referring to China, Rajnath Singh said that we have had a ‘perceptual difference’ with China for a long time. He said that the ‘Agreed Protocol’ between the two nations was ignored by China, after which the Indian Army once again showed its valor to the whole world by taking a step back to China’s PLA Army.
He said that the initiation being done to strengthen India’s national security is unprecedented in itself. He also made it clear that the country has to update and upgrade itself due to the challenges of national security. Also, the present government will not compromise on the security of the national. The government is always ready for the security of the country with air, naval and land prospective.
