Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath said that India’s three forces have given a bold and accurate response to the terrorist incident in Pahalgam last night while upholding the country’s prestige. He also thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for congratulating him.
The Chief Minister said this during a civil defence mock drill held at the Reserve Police Lines. He inspected the mock drill and interacted with the participants. The Chief Minister paid tributes to the martyrs of the Pahalgam terror incident and expressed condolences to their families. He also thanked the civil defence, NDRF, UP Police, SDRF and other institutions for the successful conduct of this exercise.
CM Yogi Adityanath said ‘Operation Sindoor’ is a symbol of protecting the honour of the sisters and daughters on whose vermilion the terrorists had dared to attack. The terrorists have suffered heavy losses in last night’s military action. “New India will respond to every cowardly act with the same firmness,” he said. The Prime Minister had assured the country on this subject from day one, and now this answer is a proof of that.
CM Yogi Adityanath said that the mock drills are being conducted to make the citizens aware of their duties in case of an emergency. Through this event, we all need to understand how important the role of citizens is during any crisis. He also said that when the valour of the country’s forces is being appreciated all over the world, every citizen should stand with them to boost their morale.
This exercise is necessary so that the enemies do not get any opportunity to cause loss of life and property in an emergency situation. During the mock drill, Civil Defence and NDRF demonstrated rescue measures in a graded manner.
This exercise is extremely important not only for the government forces and organisations but also for the common citizens. Every citizen should understand these measures and be alert to their duties. This is the demand of today’s time.
The Chief Minister appealed to all the citizens to work considering the nation as paramount. There will be no compromise on the country’s prestige. Whoever conspires against India will get a befitting reply. He urged everyone to keep an eye on suspicious activities in their area and give priority to national interest.
