Pak a terrorist state, should be isolated: Rajnath after Uri attack


New Delhi, Sep 18 (PTI) : Pakistan is a "terrorist state" and should be isolated, India today said launching a scathing attack on Islamabad in the wake of a dastardly terror strike at an army camp in Jammu and Kashmir in which 17 soldiers were killed.

In a strongly worded statement, Home Minister Rajnath Singh said the terrorists who carried out the attack in the Army Brigade Headquarters in Uri were highly trained and heavily armed and vowed to hunt down those behind it.

Expressing his deep disappointment with Pakistan's continued and direct support to terrorism and terrorist groups, he said, "Pakistan is a terrorist state and it should be identified and isolated as such".

After an hour-long reviewed meeting convened in the wake of the Uri incident, Singh, who postponed his scheduled visit to Russia and the United State, said that he has briefed Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding the deliberations.

The meeting was attended by National Security Advisor Ajit Doval, top officials of Ministries of Home and Defence and Army and paramilitary forces. "There are definite and conclusive indications that the perpetrators of Uri attack were highly trained, heavily armed and specially equipped," he said.

The Home Minister said those behind this terror incident would be brought to justice. Singh said he was deeply distressed by the terror incident and the loss of 17 soldiers. "My heartfelt condolences to the families of the martyred soldiers. I pray for speedy recovery of the injured," he said.

    Rajnath, who should isolate Pakistan! ?. When your government led by Modi himself are constantly going to Pakistan without proper invitation in the name of normalising relations, you want the world to isolate Pakistan! . First do it yourself and then ask the world to do the same!. Do you remember what all non sense you were all talking when in opposition! ?. First please advice Modiji not to go into Pakistan un invited!. Because of that, Pakistani terrorists are coming un invited!.

    Let's call spade a spade. Indian army was off guard be it kargil, Pathankot and now Uri. they need to pull up their socks and be more professional. Don't pass the buck saying Pakistan is the culprit. We have the ability to put in proper procedures to guard our own army camps and not go by chalta-hai attitudes.whoever is the commander at Uri should be held answerable.

    100% agree with you...before fixing others we should do soul search first...

    I believe Commanders of Kargil, Patankot and Uri should be Court marshaled and if found guilty of negligence should be dismissed from Service....

    SP of Patankot Salvinder Singh of Punjab Police who was going to Dargah at midnight with his Jeweller friend and Cook with 3 mobile phones when his Police car was hijacked...and he is given clean chit....in my opinion he should be hanged outside the base so nobody else do this again...he thought he was helping drug/gold smugglers!!!...

Nawaz Sharif was know the Plan of Gen.Mushraff's well in advance......and End result at beginning we got brutally torchered and mutilated dead body's of Army Soldiers....then full scale Kargil War.....

    @Ruben- you are right. Strategically our army is not upto the mark. There is no alertness.
    Army should have housing once a kilometer with proper communication system in place. And army should not get into one place for sleeping.
    Indian mentality is that once duty is over they can sleep well.

    I feel ashamed that our valiant soldiers are being killed due to the incompetence of our politicians. Successive governments, including the present one, have made a mess of our policies. India is going on a buying spree of arms and ammunition from the U.S. but cannot force them to bring pressure on Pakistan to end terror. Why? The simple answer is corruption. Ministers and bureaucrats are receiving kickbacks from the sellers for favouring them with orders because of which our representatives keep quiet. The national interest is sacrificed and whenever an incident like the present one occurs, the ministers shed crocodile tears and 'condemn' the incident. 'We will not spare anyone, India will not take it lying down' they keep screaming and after a day or two everything is forgotten. Soldiers get killed, people get killed but is anyone in the government worried? As long as we do not have patriotic people, people who are really interested in the welfare of our country, this will keep happening. It has happened in the past and it is happening today also. Till such time corruption is weeded out, the county will keep suffering.

Recollect, when you were in the opposition, how you have created the ugly seen, when soldiers died on the border. Even if is one soldier, as a citizen of this Country, I get agitated as they are sacrificing their life for me and to us.

    Either finish Kashmir and terrorist issue once for all. Just remove the special status of Kashmir and make Kashmir state as any other Indian state.

    Do not make Indians fool. Can you just give us back the POK back to India.

    Bakhts have short memory and using the word Maun Singh when current PM had not one press meet to answer live Q&A in last 28 months. Who is Maun now and why Bakhts cannot see the PM is not open and transparent as he had promised before the election.

    Our citizens are dying and our soldiers are getting killed by cowards. Centre there is BJP govt., and in state there is pro-separatist BJP govt., so where do people go ?

    Modi, Rajnat and Parrikar are all proved they are incapable to save inidan lives. BJP was screaming fitting response from ages, but can not live without exchanging saree, shawls and mangoes. UPA led by Dr. MMS scores 100times better than Modi in handling terror state Pakistan.

If these attacks are on our first line of defence by some group of terrorists what happens when full fledge war breaks out with China and Pakistan?. Shouldn't we doing something completely different now by learning from the recent incidents?. Old methods and solutions don't work now. We need totally different thinking and strategy.
