Modi slam's govt's handling of LoC crisis, says Delhi doesn't care

September 15, 2013 14:15

At the rally Narendra Modi slams the defence ministry and the government for the lack of respect to the armed forces. "When Gujarat was struck by the earthquake at Bhuj, the soldiers of the Indian Army arrived as saviours (devdoot). In Uttarakhand, our soldiers worked relentlessly to save people and some of them were killed in serving the pilgrims. I salute them and am proud of their sacrifices."

"It really hurts when the government says that men dressed in Pakistan army uniform came across the border and killed our soldiers."

"How painful that must be for the thousands of Indians? But the govt in Delhi doesn't seem to care."

"Painful to see ministers giving statements that people join armed forces to die," he said.
