New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday paid tributes to the martyrs of the Pulwama terror attack in 2019.
In his message on the social media platform ‘X’ on Friday, Modi wrote, “Tributes to the brave heroes who lost their lives in Pulwama in the year 2019. Generations to come will never forget their sacrifice and dedication to the nation.
In his message, Shah said, “On behalf of the grateful nation, I pay my heartfelt tribute to the soldiers who lost their lives in the cowardly terror attack in Pulwama on this day in 2019.
Terrorism is the biggest enemy of the entire human race and the whole world is united against it. Whether it is surgical strikes or air strikes, the Modi government is determined to eradicate terrorists by running a campaign against them with a policy of ‘zero tolerance’.
It is noteworthy that on February 14, 2019, terrorists of terrorist organization Jaish-e-Mohammed carried out a dastardly attack by targeting a convoy of the Central Reserve Police Force in Pulwama, Jammu and Kashmir. About 40 soldiers were martyred in this attack.
In response, India carried out surgical strikes and demolished terrorist hideouts in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, in which many terrorists were killed.
