Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s move to offer helping hands to Pakistan Government in the hours of crisis by natural calamity is climax of his humanitarian approach, said Madhya Pradesh Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president and MP Nandkumar Singh Chouhan in a statement here on Tuesday.
Chouhan reacting over the worst flood in Jammu and Kashmir during the past six decades was all praise for providing pace to the rescue and relief operations while dealing with the floods by Prime Minister Modi and Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh. “The readiness shown by Modi and Singh is laudable and need to be acclaimed. Nature doesn’t know nation’s boundaries and the natural calamities do not get bound in political and geographical limits. In these circumstances the move of PM Modi to offer help to Pakistan government shows his different face,” Chouhan added.
Chouhan further said that the commitment shown by prime minister in dealing with the natural calamity and his deep sympathies with the flood victims has also amazed those who used to label him as the spokesman of Hindutva and were influenced by the separatist’s elements. “Prime Minister Modi declared the floods in Jammu and Kashmir as national calamity and pumped in all resources for relief and rescue works at the same national level and proved that India is united in this hour of crisis,” he added.
He said that the prime minister immediately declared relief package of Rs 1000 crore for the flood hit hill state and said that this is symbolic whatever resources and amount would be required in dealing with the situation would be provided and there would not be any shortage of funds for this. Inter ministerial system was established at central level. Air-force, army and navy officers and personals did whatever they could have done for the protection of Jawans posted in calamity affected areas and unitedly put forth unique example of dealing with the natural calamity, he added.
