Speaking at the inauguration of a local development project in Lahore on Defence Day, Federal Minister for Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique on Sunday slammed the Indian premier saying that even though Narendra Modi had been elected as the prime minister, “his approach was still limited to that of a chief minister.”
The minister cautioned India over inciting war, adding that such actions could put at risk the entire region’s security.
“What Modi did in Bangladesh is for everyone to see.”
The federal minister said the entire nation stood with the armed forces in the war against terror and the Karachi operation. He said that Operation Zarb-i-Azb and the Karachi operation were the need of the hour, adding that for almost 50 years the people of Karachi have been facing atrocities.
“Political parties now have to rid their ranks of target killers and extortionists,” said Saad Rafique.
Just a day ago, the minister had said at a local event in Lahore that the MQM should “cleanse itself from terrorists and criminals” who are behind disrupting Karachi’s peace.
