Prime Minister Narendra Modi strongly condemned Pakistan for orchestrating the recent terror attack in Pahalgam, saying the act was not just an attack on lives but a direct assault on Insaniyat (humanity) and Kashmiriyat.
Speaking during a public rally in Katra, Jammu, PM Modi launched a scathing attack on Pakistan, stating that the neighboring country is an enemy of humanity, peace, and India’s progress. “They attacked the poor pony owner in Pahalgam who was only trying to earn a livelihood. They aimed to ignite communal riots and destroy harmony,” he said.
The Prime Minister was in Jammu to inaugurate major infrastructure projects, including the Chenab Bridge and the Anji Bridge, which he called symbols of India’s engineering excellence and progress. He laid the foundation stones for projects worth ₹46,000 crore and promised that “no force can stop the development of Jammu and Kashmir.”
Modi declared that 10,000 new bunkers would be built along border areas to protect residents from Pakistani shelling and announced increased financial support for families affected by the violence.
He highlighted India’s commitment to defending itself, referencing Operation Sindoor, in which India targeted terror infrastructure deep inside Pakistan. “Whenever they hear the name Operation Sindoor, they’ll remember their defeat,” he said.
Calling J&K the crown of India, the PM spoke about educational institutions like AIIMS and IIMs, increased MBBS seats, and the upcoming Mata Vaishno Devi Institute of Medical Excellence in Reasi.
He also praised the resilience of J&K’s people, noting that “once terrorism made people lose hope, now they are dreaming again.” Modi promised that the Amarnath Yatra and Eid celebrations will go on peacefully, and development will not be halted by terror acts.
In his closing remarks, PM Modi emphasized buying Made in India products to boost the economy and said that the government’s welfare schemes have helped 25 crore people rise out of poverty, proving that real social justice comes from action, not just slogans.
The event concluded with the release of a commemorative postal stamp honoring the engineering feats of the Chenab and Anji bridges.
