Terrorism won't break India's spirit: PM Modi
April 24, 2025

India grieves the tragic loss of innocent lives in the Pahalgam terror attack. At the National Panchayati Raj Day event in Madhubani, Bihar, PM Modi led the nation in mourning, expressing profound sorrow and outrage. A two-minute silence was observed to honour the victims, with the entire nation standing in solidarity with the affected families.

In a powerful address in Madhubani, Bihar, PM Modi gave a clarion call for justice, unity, resilience and India’s undying spirit in the face of terrorism. He condemned the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir, and outlined a resolute response to those threatening India’s sovereignty and spirit.

Reflecting on the tragic attack on April 22 in Pahalgam, PM Modi expressed profound grief, stating, “The brutal killing of innocent citizens has left the entire nation in pain and sorrow. From Kargil to Kanyakumari, our grief and outrage are one.” He extended solidarity to the affected families, assuring them that the government is making every effort to support those injured and under treatment. The PM underscored the unified resolve of 140 crore Indians against terrorism. “This was not just an attack on unarmed tourists but an audacious assault on India’s soul,” he declared.

With unwavering determination, PM Modi vowed to bring the perpetrators to justice, asserting, “Those who carried out this attack and those who conspired it will face a punishment far greater than they can imagine. The time has come to wipe out the remnants of terrorism. India’s willpower will crush the backbone of the masters of terrorism.” He further reinforced India’s global stance, stating from Bihar’s soil, “India will identify, track, and punish every terrorist, their handlers, and their backers, pursuing them to the ends of the earth. Terrorism will not go unpunished, and the entire nation stands firm in this resolve.”

PM Modi also expressed gratitude to the various countries, their leaders and the people who have stood by India in this hour of grief, emphasizing that “everyone who believes in humanity is with us.”
