He called on India to also conduct a probe into the “killings” of Kashmiris. We will force you to be left alone in the world.
He said rulers of Pakistan were misguiding people in the name of Kashmir.
He said China is the best friend of Pakistan. Plus: “Near daily protests against India in Kashmir don’t go well with New Delhi’s strategic military planning”. During his speech in the southern Indian town of Kozhikode, Modi categorically mentioned that he would like to speak directly with the Pakistani people.
I want to tell Pak people, India is ready to fight you. The attack claimed the lives of 18 Indian soldiers, in the biggest blow to security forces in the disputed Himalayan region for 14 years.
To a question, Nafees Zakaria said Pakistan has very good relations with Iran.
The Prime Minister further said more than 110 terrorists have been killed in the past few months by the Indian Army as they were trying to infiltrate. Many in the party expect the PM to use the venue to project the option of an all-out hot pursuit against the perpetrators of terror, and hold Pakistan directly responsible for such dastardly acts, according to BJP sources here.

Tensions eventually cooled after intensive global diplomacy. He said all those who had secured heavy bank loans and then swallowed these also deserved to be arrested and the written off loans be recovered from them.

“It is a sign of maturity that the Modi government is keeping all options open, but giving priority to diplomacy”, he said.
He warned Pakistan, “We will isolate you”.

“There is one country which is exporting terrorism in the world from Asia”. The social media users interpreted the reaction of Modi to indulge in a war against poverty as a weakening of his stance considering the clout and strength of Pakistani army. The Prime Minister said India had never bowed to terror and will never do so in future and will strive to defeat it. “But the fact is that having a powerful country like the United States on your side diplomatically means a lot”, he said.
