"Atankwaadiyon ko ghar mein ghus ke mara," says PM Modi in Uttarakhand

Dehradun (Uttarakhand) [India], April 11 (ANI): Referring to Uri surgical strike and Balakot air strike, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday that in the 10 years of the BJP government at the Centre "terrorists are being killed in their own homes"
Addressing a public rally in Rishikesh in Uttarakhand, the Prime Minister highlighted the major decisions taken by his government emphasising that it was under the NDA regime that Article 370 was abrogated from Jammu and Kashmir.
"Today, there is a strong government in the country. Under this 'mazboot Modi sarkar, atankwaadiyon ko ghar mein ghus ke mara jata hai'. The Indian tricolour has become a guarantee of security even in the war zone. After seven decades, Article 370 was scrapped from Jammu and Kashmir and a law was made against triple talaq. It was our strong government which ensured 33 per cent reservation in Parliament and the poor of the general category also got 10 per cent reservation," the PM said.
He also said that whenever the country had a weak government in the country, enemies have taken advantage.
Lashing out at the Congress party, the Prime Minister said, "During the Congress regime, the soldiers did not even have bulletproof jackets. There was no proper arrangement to protect them from enemy bullets. It was the BJP that gave bulletproof jackets made in India to its soldiers, saving their lives. Today, everything from modern rifles to fighter planes and aircraft carriers is being made in the country itself."
Uttarakhand has five Lok Sabha seats and the state will go to the polls in a single phase on April 19.
