Union Minister Paswan condemns Rahul Gandhi on surgical strike issue

Ludhiana, October 9, 2016: Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan has advised the AICC vice president to remain silent on the surgical strike issue any more as he had given two different statements within two day's time and people of the country were unable to understand what did he want to say on the issue.
While interacting with the media persons here on Sunday, he said the Indian Army was fully capable of any emergency situation, adding that the forces would give befitting reply to the external forces if they attempted to render any kind of damage to the nation and surgical strike was a part of that policy. Paswan was in the city on Sunday in connection with his visit to Punjab, to review arrangements made for procurement of paddy.
Paswan regretted that some opposition parties were raising voices against this act within a view to gain "political mileage". He astonished that Rahul first congratulate the Prime Minister on the issue of surgical strike by Indian Army and after two days he started raising questions over the same and the country men were unable to understand these contradictory statements of Rahul.
