Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], April 28 (ANI): BJP leader Dilip Ghosh condemned the Pahalgam terror attack and said that India was a country of peace and non-violence further stating that no terrorism would be accepted in the country.
"This is the nation of Gautam Buddha and Mahatma Gandhi. It is a country of peace and non-violence. We have always given this message to the world. We will not accept any terrorism here... PM Modi is leading the fight against terrorism... The solution brought by India against terrorism, everyone stands with it," he said
On April 22, terrorists attacked tourists at the Baisaran meadow in Pahalgam, killing 25 Indian nationals and one Nepali citizen, and leaving several others injured. The incident has sent shockwaves across the nation and the international community.
Earlier on April 27, Ghosh lashed out at Pakistani politician Bhutto Zardari over his "either water or blood will flow" remark and stated that his statement wouldn't make much of a difference since the neighbouring country was habitual in making "futile statements."
"Blood is already flowing in Pakistan. Al-Qaeda is beating them from one side and Afghanistan from the other... We have already shown them what we can do. He is still a child like he was earlier. It is Pakistan's old habit to make such futile statements," Ghosh told reporters here.
His reaction comes after Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari made a controversial statement, threatening India over the suspension of the Indus water treaty, which allocates the Western Rivers (Indus, Jhelum, Chenab) to Pakistan and the Eastern Rivers (Ravi, Beas, Sutlej) to India.
Reacting to Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's statement, Ghosh further accused the neighbouring country of violating treaties and agreements signed with India since 1947 and said that it was too late for talks.
"They want to sit and talk, but the world does not want to sit with them. Why would one sit with them and waste time? Who violated the Shimla Agreement? Which agreement has Pakistan not violated since 1947?... It is too late now. It is time for action... They should be ready to get beaten up," the BJP leader said. (ANI)
