Referring to Lord Ram's philosophy, "Praan jaaye par vachan na jaaye" — life may end, but a promise must never be broken — PM Modi said that after the horrific Pahalgam terror attack, he vowed that he would destroy terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and that he had done exactly that.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, addressing a massive rally in Karakat on Friday (May 30), declared that he had kept his promise to the nation to exact revenge for the Pahalgam terror attack.
'Praan Jaaye Par Vachan Na Jaaye'
Referring to Lord Ram's philosophy, "Praan jaaye par vachan na jaaye" — life may end, but a promise must never be broken — PM Modi said that after the horrific Pahalgam terror attack, he vowed that he would destroy terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and that he had done exactly that.
"Just a day after the dreadful terrorist attack in Pahalgam, I made a promise to the nation from the soil of Bihar that the hideouts of the masters of terrorism would be reduced to dust, that they would face a punishment beyond their imagination. Today, I have come to Bihar. I have returned after fulfilling my promise," Modi told a cheering crowd.
Hailing the recently conducted Operation Sindoor, he said that Pakistan and the world have seen the power of Indian daughters' "sindoor".
“The terrorists considered themselves safe under the protection of the Pakistani Army… our forces brought them to their knees in one stroke,” he asserted.
