“There is a country in Asia which is conspiring that there is bloodbath across Asia, so that the whole Asia comes in the grip of terrorism and innocents are killed”, the Prime Minister said, without directly taking the name of Pakistan.

Addressing a public meeting here on the coast of Arabian Sea as part of BJP National Council meet, Modi said that the Pakistan government was “misleading” its people on Kashmir and a time will come when the people of Pakistan will rise against their own rulers on the issue of terrorism.

Sharif said that India hastily blamed Pakistan without any investigation.

At a rally here, the PM issued a blunt warning that India would make every effort to isolate Pakistan for exporting terrorism.

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has claimed that the Uri terror attack could be the result of a “reaction” of the people to the situation in Kashmir as he criticised India for blaming Pakistan “without any evidence”.

On the Kashmir crisis, Singh also said: “What is happening in Kashmir is a matter of concern for all of us”.

Hitting hard at Pakistan, Modi said there was a sense of anger among people over the audacious Uri attack and the deaths of soldiers.

He hit out at Sharif ‘s reference to Hizbul leader Burhan Wani in his United Nations speech, describing it as a “stuti gaan (eulogy)” of a terrorist.

“Be it Afghanistan, Bangladesh or other nations, we have seen whenever the news of terror incidents come, terrorists have either gone from this country (Pakistan) or have settled there after committing the crime like Osama Bin Laden”, he said, referring to the al-Qaeda leader. “We will defeat terrorism”, Modi said.
