Rekha Gupta: Punjab government runs under leadership of ministers rejected by Delhi - The Economic Times Video
Ludhiana, Punjab: Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta stated, "Every person in the country was pleased with Operation Sindoor. None of the drones from Pakistan crossed the Punjab border, and this success occurred under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. However, you (Arvind Kejriwal) did not say a single word in praise of it. Additionally, there was not a single Punjabi or Sikh minister during your ten years in the Delhi government. The entire Punjab government operates under the command of Manish Sisodia, Satyendar Jain, Bibhav Kumar, and Raghav Chadha. What connection do they have to Punjab?"

1 2 3 4 5 6 Lucknow: Delivering a stern warning to Pakistan, Shah referred to Operation Sindoor and said that "Prime Minister Modi has made it clear that India's blood is not meant to be shed. Anyone who dares to do so will be punished." Citing three major counter-strikes under PM Modi's leadership — surgical strike after Uri, air strike after Pulwama, and Operation Sindoor after Pahalgam — Shah underlined India's new security doctrine of decisive retaliation. He criticised the Congress-led UPA era for its failure to prevent recurring terror attacks in Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Delhi, and Coimbatore, and in Kashmir. "Pakistan tried to attack India thrice during PM Modi's rule. When it tried in Uri, we carried out a surgical strike. After Pulwama, Pakistan met with an air strike, and after Pahalgam, the headquarters of terrorists were razed to the ground in Operation Sindoor," he said, adding that "Operation Sindoor came as a defining moment in India's counter-terror doctrine." Speaking on the promise of eradicating Naxalism by March 31, 2026, Shah said: "In 11 years of Modi govt, the country has gotten safe. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Naxalism was prevalent in 11 states of the country.

By 2047, we will be number one — and Uttar Pradesh will be a key driver of that growth," he added.
