Anantnag (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], April 26 (ANI): Following Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari's empty rhetoric on the Indus Water Treaty, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Ravinder Raina on Saturday reminded Pakistan of India's military might, citing the 1965 and 1971 wars and the Kargil conflict, asserting that while India is a peace-loving nation, it possesses the strength to defend its sovereignty.
"Pakistan knows that India is a peace-loving country, but the world also knows India's strength. Bilawal Bhutto should remember 1965 when the Indian Army hoisted the tricolour flag in Lahore, and 1971 when the Pakistani Army was driven out of Dhaka, and the Kargil war when the Pakistanis entered but did not go back," Raina told ANI.
Speaking on the Pahalgam attack, the BJP leader said that there is anger against Pakistan's terrorism in India and the entire Jammu and Kashmir.
"Attack on tourists in Pahalgam is the murder of humanity. A very big crime has been committed by these criminals of Pakistan, for which Pakistan and the terrorists will have to pay a very big price," Ravinder Raina said.
His remarks came after the April 22 terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam in which 26 people were killed, after which India suspended the Indus Waters Treaty, leading Bhutto to resort to empty rhetoric.
Earlier on Friday, while addressing a public gathering in Sukkur, Zardari stated that just as the PPP did not approve a controversial canal project without consensus, Pakistanis will stand united and give a resounding response to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's aggression on the Indus River, as reported by Geo News.
"The brave people of Sukkur have sent a clear message by participating in the rally that we will not allow anyone to bargain over the Indus... The Modi government is unilaterally suspending the Indus Water Treaty...but I want to stand by the Indus River in Sukkur and give a clear message to India that the Indus River is ours and will remain ours; either our water will flow from this Indus or your blood," the PPP Chairman said.
