Friday (September 27): Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh today warned about the possible threat of a ‘big incident’ by Pakistani terrorists across the country’s coastline.
He was speaking at a public event in Kerala’s Kollam.
Singh assured that India’s security establishment is committed to coastal and maritime security in order to avert any such attack.
“We cannot rule out that our neighbouring country’s terrorist can carry out a big incident on our coastline which extends from Kutch to Kerala. As a Defence Minister, I would like to assure that our country’s maritime security is absolutely strong and solidified,” Singh was quoted as saying by news agency PTI.
Addressing the audience at the 66th birthday celebrations of Mata Amritanandamayi Devi in the coastal state, the Defence Minister, while referring to the airstrikes on terrorist camps in Balakot, said that India will not let anyone who bothered them ‘rest in peace’.
He further said, “You know that after some days of Pulwama incident, our air force conducted airstrike at Balakot in Pakistan. We do not bother anyone, but if anyone bothers us, we will not let them rest in peace.”
