"India Can Give Fitting Reply When Provoked": PM After Ladakh Clash

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said today that the sacrifice of Indian soldiers killed in a clash with Chinese troops at Galwan Valley in Ladakh would not go in vain. "India wants peace but when provoked, India is capable of giving a fitting reply, be it any kind of situation," PM Modi warned in a strong message to China.

प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी ने आज कहा कि लद्दाख की गैलवान घाटी में चीनी सैनिकों के साथ मुठभेड़ में मारे गए भारतीय सैनिकों का बलिदान बेकार नहीं जाएगा। पीएम मोदी ने चीन को कड़े संदेश में चेतावनी देते हुए कहा, "भारत शांति चाहता है लेकिन जब उकसाया जाए तो भारत उचित जवाब देने में सक्षम है।"
