Panaji, Sep 30 (IANS) Goa Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar on Friday hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar for the surgical strikes at terror camps in Pakistan-held Kashmir.
"Pakistan used to hammer India and we would sit calm and quiet. For the first time, I believe, proper reply has been given, which has been enjoyed, accepted and appreciated by all citizens, irrespective of their party affiliations. Kudos to Modi-ji and Manohar Parrikar," Parsekar told reporters.
"(It was a) fantastic move... People across the country had on many occasions become frustrated because it always used to be a one-sided action," the Goa Chief Minister added.
In a swift move, Indian Army commandos slipped into PoK in the intervening night of Wednesday and Thursday and destroyed several terrorist launch pads, killing an unspecified number of terrorists, who an Indian Army spokesperson said, were waiting to infiltrate into India.
