Press Statement
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:
The Polit Bureau strongly criticizes the intemperate statements made by
Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar regarding Modi Government's approach to
the issue of Pakistan backed terrorists who infiltrate into Jammu & Kashmir.
In a widely reported interview he said that "terrorists will be met by
terrorists." This is a shocking call from the Defence Minister to act
outside the law and in fact suggests patronizing 'state sponsored'
terrorism. It does damage to India's demand for action against Pakistan
backed terrorists. The Prime Minister should make amends through a public
correction of this statement.
