PM Modi in his Gujarat address :

"Pakistan's proxy war after 6th May is no longer proxy. We destroyed Pakistani terror camps, we have camera footage, which everyone have seen. Pakistan gave state honors to terrorists killed in Indian strikes, this proves it is war with India"

"Shocked to know, under 1960 Indus water treaty, de-silting of dams in J&K dams will not take place, that reduced the capacity of the dams. Dont Indians have right to the water? The treaty is in abeyance, & we are just cleaning the dams, but Pakistan is shivering"

"We are the 4th largest economy,"

"The thunder of Sindoor has been heard by all..."

"We will remove the thorn (of terrorism).."

"In 1947, India was divided. It was time to cut the colonial shackles, but the limbs of India were cut. India was divided into 3 parts. It was in 1947, 1st terror attack happened by Pakistan by attacking Kashmir. The Mujahids attacked India..."

"Goli ka jawab goley se, int ka jawab pathar se, kantey ko ukhad dena chahye"

"We will respond bullet with a bomb, brick with a bolder, & will remove the thorn of terrorism"

PM Modi —

"In 1947, Maa Bharti was partitioned—chains should’ve been cut, but her limbs were severed."

"That night, the first terror attack hit Kashmir. PoK was grabbed using Mujahideen."
