Srinagar, July 09: BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh, who is also the party incharge for J&K, paid rich tributes to the five soldiers who died in a militant attack in Kathua region and said “it was a sign of Pakistan ISI’s nervous reaction to the peace and development that has come in J&K during the tenure of Prime Minister Narendra Modi”.
Reacting strongly to the targeted attacks being made on the soldiers, Chugh said it reflected panic and desperations among the ISI-sponsored ranks.
He said ever since the peaceful Lok Sabha elections in J&K there has been a calculated design to challenge the law and order situation in J&K.
The Pakistan ISI-sponsored anti-national forces would be decisively defeated, said Chugh adding that the pace of development and progress in the union territory would not be allowed to slow down in any case.
“I extend my heartfelt condolences to the families of our brave soldiers who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Their martyrdom will not go in vain. This heinous act is a stark reminder of the evil forces that seek to disrupt peace and stability in our region”, said Chugh.
The people here have given a befitting reply to Pakistan, which is reflected in the high voter turnout in the recent Lok Sabha elections. This is a big slap on the face of Pakistan, as the Kashmiri people are now standing with India.
He said people of J&K want to move fast on the path of growth and development and it was amply reflected in the high turn-out of voters in the last Lok Sabha election here.
Chugh promised that the security forces have unleashed a relentless war against terrorists and it would usher in a new era in J&K.
