Spokesperson: Col. Rohit Chaudhary (Retd.): He said that as the entire country is grief-stricken due to a shocking and very sad news of attaining martyrdom of our brave hearts Col Manpreert Singh, Commanding Officer 19 Rashtriya Rifles (12th Sikh LI), Maj Aashish Dhonchak Company Commander 19 Rashtriya Rifles (15th Sikh LI) and Dy Superintendent of J&K Police Humayun M Bhat, in counter insurgency operation in Anantnag District, Garol (Kokarnag area) on Wednesday, 13 Sep 2023.

We would like to appreciate the valiant operation and sacrifices made by our great soldiers of our great and formidable defence forces.

But it is very disheartening and painful to note that our Prime Minister Modi Ji has shown utter disrespect and insensitivity towards the sacrifices made by our brave soldiers. While our soldiers fighting the battle with Pakistan sponsored terrorist in Anantnag, and news had come out about the death of our three soldiers and some were wounded, but Modi Ji were doing his own ‘Mahima Mandan’ in his own BJP Hq by his own BJP people; who were showering flowers on him and Modi Ji was projecting his grandeur image in front of the nation.

I want to remind our Prime Minister that showering of flower and garlanding is more suited to the martyrs and not for own ‘Mahima Mandan’.

Whenever Modi Ji is in trouble he hides behind the nation’s soldier’s and defence forces for to advance his political agenda to seek votes as he did after Pulwama incident, but when it’s come to honouring its soldiers, Modi Ji takes back seat. What was more important to you, your celebrations or lives of your soldiers? Thursday, September 14, 2023
