Anurag Singh Thakur, Union Minister of State for Finance and Corporate Affairs, in-charge of Jammu and Kashmir DDC elections, has stated, “The New India envisioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi is fearless, it looks the world eye to eye and strikes terrorists in their home. It hits hard without hesitation to secure India’s interests.”
Thakur said, “In 2001 the temple of democracy was attacked, our security forces fought the cowardly terrorists with valour. The terrorists and its sympathisers wanted India to bleed. However, today under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, as we begin a new journey by building a new temple of democracy – the new parliament building, let me remind everyone that this marks a turning a point in history. The BJP has a new outlook for New India, there is zero tolerance for terrorists and its sympathisers. The Gupkar Gangs era of supporting separatists and shedding tears for terrorists is over forever.”
Sh Thakur went on to say, “Modi government has strengthened national security and modernised the armed forces. Today India has Rafales and our jawans have bullet proof vests and bunkers to face enemy fire. India looks the enemy eye to eye and does not hesitate in counter terror operations to protect Indian lives. We have a smooth inter-services coordination with the setting up of Chief of Defence Staff. We have stronger firepower, air defence and surveillance systems in place. India strikes on its own terms, fearlessly.”
Sh Thakur questioned the Gupkar Gang and asked, “why should the sons of daughters of J&K become victims of terror while Gupkar Gang family members live a life of luxury abroad? Why do they never talk about the human rights of the parents, children and youth of J&K. Is humanity reserved only for the family members of Gupkar Gang?”
Sh Thakur added, “Since the abrogation of Article 370 and 35A, the Gupkar Gang has become desperate, they considered J&K their personal estate and that era has come to an end. The people have given them a befitting reply by coming out in higher numbers to cast their vote, neither is there an atmosphere of fear nor fraud. The divisive politics by the Gupkar Gang who are hand in glove with separatists is coming to an end. The Gupkar Gang has never believed in participatory democracy or public welfare.”
