Eat Roti in Peace or Face Goli: PM to Pak

New Delhi/Bhuj: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday exhorted the “people of Pakistan” to come forward to shun terrorism and live a peaceful life or else be ready to face Indian bullets.Addressing a public meeting after laying the foundation stone and inaugurating multiple development projects worth over Rs 53,400 crores in Gujarat’s Bhuj, Prime Minister Modi urged the people of Pakistan to understand that their government and Army were supporting terrorism for their own benefit, and so they must come forward to end the menace which was ruining their lives.“Terrorism is a way of making money for your (Pakistan) government and Army. The people of Pakistan must come forward to end terrorism. Live a happy and peaceful life and have your meal. Otherwise, my bullet is there for you (Sukh chain ki zindagi jio, roti khao, varna meri goli to hai hee),” Mr Modi said in a message to the people across the border.The Prime Minister told the gathering that after the Pahalgam terrorist attack, he waited for 15 days hoping that Pakistan will take action on terrorism, but it seems it is their bread and butter. “On the night of May 9, when Pakistan tried to attack civilians, our military attacked with double force and decimated their air bases,” he said.Earlier, speaking at a public meeting in Gujarat’s Dahod, Mr Modi said that “Operation Sindoor” was not just a military action but a reflection of India’s values and emotions. Prime Minister Modi also said that Pakistan’s only aim is to hate India and think of ways to harm it, while our nation has set goals of removing poverty and bringing about economic development.In Dahod, the Prime Minister inaugurated the locomotive manufacturing plant of the Indian Railways. This plant will produce electric locomotives of 9,000 HP for domestic purposes and for export. He also flagged off the first electric locomotive built at the plant. Thereafter, the Prime Minister laid the foundation stone and inaugurated multiple development projects worth over Rs 24,000 crores in Dahod. The projects include rail projects and various projects of the Gujarat government. He also flagged off Vande Bharat Express between Veraval and Ahmedabad and an express train between Valsad and Dahod stations.Addressing a public meeting in Gujarat’s Dahod, the Prime Minister emphasized that India’s cultural values demand action against injustice, and said: “Operation Sindoor was not just a military action but a reflection of India’s values and emotions.” "How can India and Modi sit quiet after such a terrorist attack?" the Prime Minister asked, eliciting a thunderous cheer from the crowd.”Anyone who dares to erase the ‘sindoor’ from the foreheads of our sisters will surely be eliminated,” he said, adding that terrorists may not have imagined in their wildest dreams how difficult it would be to fight against Narendra Modi.The Prime Minister said the decisive action was a direct fulfilment of the responsibility entrusted to him by the nation's citizens when they made him “pradhan sevak” on May 26, 2014, and he had granted complete autonomy to the three wings of the armed forces, enabling them to execute actions unseen globally for decades.Noting that terrorists had no idea of the consequences of their actions, recalling the brutality of killing a father in front of his children, he said such images still ignite anger across the nation, as 140 crore Indians were challenged by terrorism.Mr Modi declared that he fulfilled his responsibility as the nation’s leader, giving full freedom to India’s armed forces, who then executed an operation unseen in decades.He mentioned that nine major terror hubs across the border were identified and destroyed in 22 minutes, and said that Pakistan’s military attempted retaliation but was decisively defeated by Indian forces.The Prime Minister reiterated his deep respect for the valor of India’s armed forces, saluting their courage and dedication from the sacred land of Dahod.Criticising Pakistan, the Prime Minister said: “The neighbouring country, that came into existence after Partition, lives on hatred for India. It only wants to harm Bharat. However, India's goals are to remove poverty, bring about economic development and become a developed nation.”The Prime Minister mentioned that a developed India can only be built when both its armed forces and economy are strong. He stated that the government was continuously working in this direction, ensuring national security and economic growth go hand in hand.The PM, who on Monday (May 26) completed 11 years in office, also highlighted that India had surpassed Japan to become the world's fourth-largest economy and asked Pakistani citizens to mull where their country stands.“While India believes in tourism, Pakistan considers terrorism as tourism, which is very dangerous for the world. I want to ask the people of Pakistan -- what they have achieved? Today, India is the 4th largest economy in the world. But what is your situation? Those...
