NEW DELHI : The incident of mutilation of a Jawan’s body by infiltrators, who crossed over under the cover of Pakistani troops’ unprovoked firing, has angered the Government at the top level, with several senior Ministers denouncing the brutal act.
Home Minister Rajnath Singh warned of a befitting reply by the Armed Forces, saying that the country will not be cowed down by such cowardly acts.
“Our forces are giving a befitting reply and the country will always hold its head high,” he said, reacting to the incident.
Information and Broadcasting Minister M Venkaiah Naidu slammed Pakistan, saying what it was indulging in, would eventually boomerang on its face.
Minister of State in Prime Minister’s Office Jitendra Singh, who represents Jammu Parliamentary constituency, called the incident as ‘atrocious’.
“There can be nothing more atrocious than this incident. Those who are talking of human rights should know that the human rights of soldiers will always take precedence over those, who commit violence,” he said.
“It is unfortunate that at a time, when we are celebrating Diwali, our soldiers are facing continuous firing on the border. It is because of our troops that we are able to celebrate the festival,” the Minister added. (AGENCIES)
