Modi asks all political parties to back soldiers at China border |
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 14th September said he believed that Parliament and its members would give an unequivocal message that the country stood strongly with soldiers at a time when they were deployed in tough the terrain on the borders under adverse circumstances. The PM said, “This House, particularly this session, has one more crucial responsibility. Today, the brave soldiers of our Army are on the borders. They are defending the borders with great courage and high spirits, in difficult terrain. And the rains are going to begin in a few days.” Speaking before the start of the 18-day monsoon session, Modi said that just like the faith with which soldiers were standing, determined to protect the motherland, Parliament, and all members of the House too would send out a message in a unanimous voice, spirit, and resolve, that the country stands in support of the Army. His remarks were in reference to deployment in eastern Ladakh where the Army is engaged in a tense standoff with Chinese troops. The PM said the session was taking place under special circumstances. He said there is a Corona pandemic on one hand while our obligation towards fulfilling our duties on the other; and all MPs have chosen the path of duty. I congratulate and thank all MPs for this initiative.”
