Raipur (Chhattisgarh) [India], April 30 (ANI): Chhattisgarh Deputy Chief Minister Arun Sao on Wednesday said that historic decisions were being made under Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terrorist attack, which claimed 26 lives and injured many.
He said that the decision taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the security review meet yesterday was 'historic' since the Army would be able to operate strongly.
'The people of the whole country are angry with the Pahalgam incident. People feel that Pakistan should be taught a tough lesson. Historic decisions are being made under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi, whether suspending the Indus Water Treaty or cancelling Pakistanis' visas. The way Pakistan is repeatedly violating the ceasefire on the border, the decision taken by the Prime Minister yesterday is historic,' Sao told ANI.
Speaking on Congress' 'Gayab' remarks against the Prime Minister, Sao said, 'This has exposed the mentality of the Congress party that they time and again speak the language of Pakistan and terrorists.'
In the wake of the deadly Pahalgam terrorist attack, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has once again convened a meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) which will be followed by the meetings of Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs (CCPA), the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) and a full Cabinet meeting on Wednesday.
The CCS, which has convened for the second time following the Pahalgam attacks, will discuss security preparedness in the wake of the Pahalgam incident.
The Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) last met on April 23 and was briefed in detail on the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, in which 25 Indians and one Nepali citizen were killed.
The government announced a series of measures, including holding the Indus Water Treaty in abeyance, in a strong message to Pakistan for its support of cross-border terrorism.
Earlier on Tuesday, Prime Minister Modi chaired a meeting attended by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Chief of Defence Staff Gen. Anil Chauhan, and the three service chiefs.
National Security Advisor Ajit Doval was also present at the meeting. Government sources said the Prime Minister affirmed that it is India's national resolve to deal a crushing blow to terrorism.
The sources said PM Modi expressed complete faith and confidence in the professional abilities of the Indian Armed Forces. PM Modi stated that the Indian Armed Forces have complete operational freedom to decide on the mode, targets, and timing of India's response.
The meeting, chaired by Prime Minister Modi, was attended by Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi, Navy Chief Admiral Dinesh K. Tripathi, and Air Chief Marshal Amar Preet Singh. (ANI)
