While performing the sacred duty of serving the motherland, BSF Sub Inspector Imtiaz laid down his life at the border on 10 May. I pay my respectful tribute to this son of Bihar. The enemy has seen the power of Operation Sindoor. They should understand that this is just one arrow in our quiver. India’s fight against terrorism has neither stopped nor halted. If the hood of terror rises again, India will crush it by pulling it out of its hole.”

The PM further highlighted that how Maoism was tackled in the state of Bihar and other regions of the country. He also praised the incumbent Bihar CM Nitish Kumar for spearheading the development in Bihar.
“The people of Bihar are witnesses to how we have eliminated those who spread violence and unrest in the past years. How Naxalism was dominant in the Sasaram and nearby districts a few years ago. These people (Maoists) had no faith in Babasaheb Ambedkar. Even in those circumstances, Nitish Kumar tried his best for development here. Before 2014, more than 75 districts were Naxal-affected. Now, only 18 districts are left Naxal-affected. The day is not far when Maoist violence will be completely eradicated.”
