"Those who questioned the surgical strikes must come and visit the house of martyrs," Prime Minister Narendra Modi said at a rally in Uttar Pradesh on Saturday. Addressing a rally at Jaunpur, the PM said that it is not good and right to politicise national security.
"One
must
visit
the
homes
of
the
martyrs
to
understand
the
pain,"
Modi
said
while
speaking
about
the
surgical
strikes
that
were
conducted
across
the
line
of
control
in
September
2016.
Modi
said
that
for
40
years
the
forces
demanded
for
One
Rank
One
Pension.
"Nothing
happened
for
40
years.
I
had
promised
before
I
became
the
PM
that
OROP
will
be
implemented.
The
BJP
promised
OROP
and
once
we
came
to
power,
we
did,"
Modi
added.
