BJP national president Amit Shah on Sunday declared that the blood of 40 CRPF martyrs in the Pulwama terror attack will not go waste and terrorists will be taught a lesson that they will remember for long.
“The blood of 40 martyrs will not go waste. The Government will teach them (terrorists) a lesson,” Shah said while addressing the BJP workers ahead of the LS elections during which a two-minute silence was also observed in the memory of the 40 martyrs.
Of the 40 slain jawans, four belonged to Punjab. Shah claimed only the BJP could provide a strong Government at the Centre under the PM Modi and he would take the country forward. “The next PM will be Narendra Modi... Congress can only daydream,” he said.
Taking a dig at the Opposition, Shah said that the mahagathbandhan do not even have a leadership face for the top post. It cannot take the country forward, he added.
Addressing the party rally at Amritsar, Shah also lashed out at Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh and his Government of halting development works initiated by the previous Government.
He lashed out at the Congress claiming that the promises made by the party before elections had not been met. “The farm debt waiver is a sham. No farmer has received any benefit,” he maintained.
Taking on Punjab Minister Navjot Singh Sidhu, Shah said that he had lowered “the dignity of the country by embracing Pakistani Army Chief, who is killing our soldiers everyday”.
