Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached Jaisalmer border post on Saturday morning to celebrate Diwali with security forces. PM Modi celebrated Diwali with soldiers at Longewala border.
Speaking on the occasion, Prime Minister Narendra Modi lauded the soldiers for their contribution to keeping India's borders safe. He said, "Today, India is safe because it has the power to safeguard itself."
PM Modi said, "If anyone remembers the name of a post in the country, then it is the Longewala post. On this post, your colleagues have written such a saga of valour that people remember it fondly. The Battle of Longewala is remembered whenever history of military skill is written," he said.
"This was the time when Pakistan's army was oppressing the people of Bangladesh .. Their activities were exposing the disgusted face of Pakistan. In order to divert the attention of the world, we opened a front on the western border of our country. They thought that by doing this they would hide the sins of Bangladesh. But Pakistan had to pay for their deeds. The echo of might on this post overwhelmed the enemy. Under the leadership of Major Kuldeep Singh Chandpur, the enemy was reduced to dust," added PM Modi.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi informed that more than 100 foreign arms and ammunition will not be procured from foreign. "We are making self-defence sector self-reliant. Focus will be on home-grown equipment," he said.
In a stern warning to enemies, PM Modi said that if anyone tries to test our capabilities, India will give an answer with equal force. "Today India's strategy is clear. Today India believes in the policy of understanding and explaining. However, if anyone tries to test our capabilities, India will give an impactful reply," he said.
