Look at what PM Modi said & wait for few days: Puri to Pak leader
The ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan have been escalating rapidly, with both sides trading barbs and making provocative statements. The latest development in this saga is a verbal spat between Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri and Pakistani politician Bilawal Bhutto.
The controversy began when Bhutto, who is the chairman of the Pakistan Peoples Party, made a provocative remark about India’s decision to suspend the Indus Waters Treaty over the Pahalgam attack. In response, Puri, the Union Minister of Housing and Urban Affairs, issued a warning to Pakistan, saying, “Look at what PM Narendra Modi said in Bihar…and wait for a few days.”
For those who may not be aware, PM Modi had made a strong statement after the Pahalgam attack, vowing that India would identify, track and punish every terrorist and their backers. This statement was made in the wake of the brutal terror attack on Amarnath Yatra pilgrims in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which left eight people dead and many more injured.
Puri’s warning to Pakistan is seen as a clear message that India will not tolerate any further provocation or aggression. The Union Minister’s words are also a clear indication that India is prepared to take decisive action against Pakistan if it continues to support terrorism and sponsor anti-India activities.
It is worth noting that the Indus Waters Treaty is a bilateral agreement between India and Pakistan that governs the sharing of the waters of the Indus River and its tributaries. The treaty was signed in 1960 and has been in place for over five decades. However, the recent tensions between the two countries have raised concerns about the future of the treaty.
Pakistan’s reaction to India’s decision to suspend the treaty has been one of outrage and defiance. Bhutto’s provocative remark, which sparked Puri’s warning, was seen as a clear attempt to provoke India and undermine its authority. However, Puri’s response has left Pakistan in a difficult situation, as it has been forced to backpedal and tone down its rhetoric.
In recent years, India and Pakistan have been engaged in a bitter conflict over the issue of terrorism. Pakistan has been accused of sponsoring and supporting terrorist groups that have carried out attacks on Indian soil, while India has been vocal in its criticism of Pakistan’s role in the region.
The Pahalgam attack is just the latest in a series of terrorist attacks that have targeted India in recent years. The attack has sparked widespread outrage and condemnation across the country, with many calling for India to take decisive action against Pakistan.
In the wake of the attack, PM Modi had also announced that India would be conducting a comprehensive review of its foreign policy towards Pakistan. This review is seen as a major shift in India’s approach to Pakistan, which has traditionally been based on dialogue and diplomacy.
However, with the recent escalation of tensions, it appears that India’s approach may be changing. The decision to suspend the Indus Waters Treaty is seen as a major blow to Pakistan, and Puri’s warning to Pakistan suggests that India is prepared to take further action if necessary.
In conclusion, the verbal spat between Puri and Bhutto is just the latest development in the ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan. While the situation is complex and volatile, one thing is clear: India will not tolerate any further provocation or aggression from Pakistan. As Puri’s warning suggests, India is prepared to take decisive action to protect its interests and citizens.
