India never counts bullets while retaliating: Rajnath Singh

Barmer (Rajasthan), Oct 8: Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Saturday reviewed security on the international border in the desert state and said India never attacked anyone but doesn't count the bullets when retaliating.

On the second day of his visit to Rajas-than, Singh visited the Border Security Force's Munabao Border Outpost (BOP) here.

"India never attacks anyone and we do not intend to occupy others' land. Our heritage is 'Vasudev Kutumbakam' or the whole world is one family. We never open fire first; but if attacked, in retaliation we never count the bullets after pulling the trigger," the Union Minister said while addressing BSF personnel.

Singh's comments come in the wake of heightened tension between India and Paki-stan following the Indian Army's surgical strikes against terrorist launch pads across the Line of Control on September 29 and the September 18 Uri terror attack.

Lauding the BSF, Singh assured that the Centre will do everything to improve infra-structure on the international borders and their service conditions.

He said urgent repairs on damaged border fence at some places will be carried out, and periodically reviewed thereafter.

The minister said installation of flood lights and a road parallel to the border fenc-ing will also be completed to facilitate effec-tive border patrols.

Pointing out that some BOPs do not have telephone facility, he said connectivity will be ensured with the sanction of more mobile phone towers close to the border. In the meantime, more satellite phones will be provided at the BOPs, he assured.

Singh said the Centre will soon address the shortage of bulletproof jackets and con-sider procuring such jackets that are lighter.

He said the BSF's proposal to construct safety walls and ring bunds on peripheries of BSF bat-talion headquarters and BOPs will be examined.

The Union Minister said the issue of dis-comfort caused by camouflage uniform of BSF personnel will also be addressed.

On Friday, Rajnath Singh had visited Murar and adjoining BOP in Jaisalmer dis-trict and interacted with the BSF troopers there. IANS

India, Pak should take steps to restore peace on border: FarooqSrinagar, Oct 8: Express-ing concern over cross-bor-der shelling in Jammu and Kashmir, National Con-ference president Farooq Abdullah today appealed India and Pakistan to take "effective measures" for restoration of peace along the borders in the state.

"We appeal India and Pak-istan leadership for taking effective and urgent mea-sures for restoration of peace along the Line of Control and International Borders in Jammu and Kashmir," the former chief minister said in a statement here.

He said the main brunt of the shelling is being faced by the border dwell-ers as escalation of ten-sion has led to relocation of people from the forward areas that is causing enor-mous problems to them.

Abdullah expressed anguish over injuries to sev-eral persons in the border areas of Poonch district. He prayed for early recovery of the injured and expressed solidarity with the people.

Abdullah also empha-sised the need for provid-ing adequate compensation to the farmers whose stand-ing crops have been dam-aged due to shelling.

Nayeema Mehjoor's book releasedSrinagar, Oct 8: Nayeema Ahmed Mehjoor’s book “Lost in Terror”, published by Penguin Random House India, has been released.

“The book has been released internation-ally and is available in the market now,” Meh-joor said.

Cast in the background of the uprising against the armed forces in Kashmir in late 1980s, “Lost in Terror”, according to a statement, is the tale of a young, edu-cated, career conscious woman who finds herself sucked into a maelstrom of death and destruction.

As per the release, she also cherishes the dream of Azadi and plays strong to face the wrath of Indian soldiers.

"But when she finds her husband’s discreet links with gunmen obsessed with the dream of Azadi, she becomes fragile and begins to lose her hold on her home, her relation-ships and Azadi itself.

When her dreams for a perfect family and a thriving career are turned upside down and her life comes to a standstill due to the turmoil around her, fate offers her a leap of faith—but will she take it?"
