Terrorists Will Have To Pay The Big Price - PM Narendra Modi

A day after the major terror attack on Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) where about 40 Jawans have been martyred, the NDA government has given full freedom to the security forces. The attack on a CRPF convoy in Jammu and Kashmir's Pulwama district on Thursday by terrorists is the second biggest attack on the paramilitary force in the last nine years.## Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi said that the terrorists will have to pay the big price for this attack. The incident took place when about 2,500 CRPF personnel were going in a convoy of 78 vehicles from Jammu to Srinagar. The incident, believed to be a suicide attack, saw a van packed with explosives reportedly ram into a CRPF bus.## The PM said that "Respectfully pay tribute to martyr soldiers in the Pulwama terror attack. They have offered their life while serving the country. In this moment of grief, my senses are with their families. I want to tell terrorist organizations and their guardians that they have made a big mistake. They will pay a very big price".## "We have given full freedom to our security forces. We have full confidence in the bravery and valor of our soldiers. I assure the country that whatever the victims of this attack are, they will definitely get the punishment for their actions".## "Our neighboring country has been isolated in the whole world if it understands that such a horrible act is doing it and the kind of conspiracy it is creating will succeed in creating instability in our country, then it is a big mistake Has been doing. The whole nation of attacks like Pulwama will fight bitterly, this country is not going to stop. The heroes of our country who have sacrificed their lives, we will spend the moment of our life in order to fulfill their dreams".## "All my colleagues are requested to say that it is a very sensitive and emotional moment. We must stay away from all political splinters. The country of this attack is uniting and fighting. The country has only one form and it should be heard in the whole world because the fight is fighting for victory".## "130 crores Hindustani will give every such conspiracy, a repetitive response to such attacks," PM Narendra Modi added.## A grateful nation bows to the martyrs of Pulwama. A befitting reply will be given to the perpetrators of the heinous attack and their patrons. No force will succeed in disturbing peace, progress and stability of India. pic.twitter.com/hFq0pUByVJ— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) February 15, 2019 ## Follow for more...
