26/11 पर मोदी- कांग्रेस विवाद के बीच मनीष तेवारी का करारा जवाब

On PM Modi criticising Congress on its 26/11 response, Congress MP Manish Tewari says, "This is absolutely baseless and completely wrong. It is unfortunate that the Prime Minister of India made such a statement. The reality is that from 2014 to 2024, despite surgical strikes and the action taken now, the DNA of the deep state of Pakistan has not changed. Pakistan has been encouraging terrorism against India since 1980. No matter which government was in power, be it Congress, United Front, or BJP, every government in India made every attempt to fight terrorism. Politicising Pakistan-sponsored terrorism is not in the interest of India's national security." It is indeed unfortunate that PMOIndia uses the scourge of Pakistan sponsored terrorism for partisan purposes to try and score political brownie points. If indeed all the coercive kinetic actions qua Pakistan between 29 th September 2016 & May 7-10 2025 would have had a salutary effect on the deep state in Pakistan what then accounts for all these terror attacks incubated by Pakistan between 2014-2024 detailed & the love fest between US and Pakistan Post 10 th May 2025 ? Every government since 1980 has tried to deal with Pakistan sponsored Terrorism in the best manner possible. This he said she said does great disservice to National Security. Those lives lost to Terror are not mere political statistics that are to be weaponised and hurled at each other. Ask the next of kin of those who lost family members to the depredations of Pakistan sponsored Terror ? After the 26/11 Terror attack in November 2008 the next mega attack on that scale that lasted nine hours was on the Indian Consulate in Herat on May 23rd 2014 on the eve of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's swearing in. It was followed by : July 27, 2015: Attack in Dina Nagar, Gurdaspur, Punjab; 10 killed, 15 injured; perpetrated by suspected Pakistan-based militants.
