Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting Jammu and Kashmir today. He dedicated the world's highest railway bridge, the
Chenab Bridge
, to the nation. Modi was also seen walking on the Chenab Bridge, carrying the tricolor flag. During this event, he addressed a public meeting in Katra and paid tribute to Adil, a local Kashmiri youth who was killed in the Pahalgam attack.
PM Modi stated that our neighboring country is an enemy of humanity. On April 22, Pakistan attacked both humanity and Kashmiriyat in Pahalgam. Pakistan aims to incite communal unrest in our country and seeks to deprive the hardworking people of Kashmir of their livelihoods.
He mentioned that Pakistan is a country that opposes even the bread and butter of the poor. By attacking tourists, they tried to halt the growing tourism which brought record numbers of visitors, essential for the livelihoods of Jammu and Kashmir's people. Pakistan's conspiracy intended to destroy this progress.
Modi highlighted that
the young man Adil who challenged the terrorists was laboring there to provide for his family. He was striving for his family's wellbeing, yet the terrorists killed him.
The way people of Jammu and Kashmir have stood against Pakistan's conspiracy is commendable. They have sent a strong message to the world that they are determined to fight terrorism.
PM Modi referenced the Eiffel Tower in France, saying that the Chenab Bridge is the world's tallest railway arch bridge. People visit Paris to see the Eiffel Tower, and this bridge, taller than the Eiffel Tower, will become an attractive tourist destination in itself. Visitors will flock there for selfies at the selfie point. Our Anji Bridge is also a marvel of engineering, being India's first cable-supported bridge. These are not mere structures of brick, cement, steel, and iron, but symbols of India's strength standing on the rugged Pir Panjal Mountains. They depict India's bright future and the magnitude of the dream for a developed India, fueled by our determination and noble intentions.
Prime Minister Modi resolutely stated that it is his promise that development will not stop here. Any obstacle that arises will face Modi first. Today is June 6. A month ago, on the night of May 6, calamity struck Pakistan. If Pakistan ever considers 'Operation Sindoor,' they will recall their defeat. Pakistan never anticipated that India would enter their territory to strike at terror bases. The structures of terror are now in ruins, leaving Pakistan agitated.
