Warning supporters of “terrorism” that they would never be successful, Modi said the “enemy” would be given a tough response.

“Today, I am speaking from a place where the masters of terror can hear my voice directly, I want to tell these patrons of terrorism that their nefarious intentions will never succeed. Our soldiers will crush terrorism with full force and the enemy will be given a befitting reply,” Modi said.
