He added that the Tripura Government fully supports what the Prime Minister said in his address.

'The message has been loud and clear from Prime Minister Narendra Modi that India is not going to tolerate any terrorism or escalation whatsoever by Pakistan. In the recent past, we have seen that the Pahalgam incident took place wherein 26 innocent lives were lost the Pakistan Pakistan-sponsored terrorism,' Chowdhury told ANI.

'Time and again, India has proved its strength before the world and very categorically made a precision attack through our cruise missiles, ballistic missiles on Pakistan. And they, finding no other alternative, have surrendered and sent a proposal for a ceasefire. Today our Prime Minister made it very, very categorically clear that under any circumstances, any act of terrorism sponsored by Pakistan will be taken very, very seriously in the coming times,' he added.

The minister said that PM Modi conveyed to Pakistan that any act of terrorism sponsored by them will be dealt with an iron hand.

The third pillar is 'No distinction between terror sponsors and terrorists.'PM Modi said India will no longer see terrorist leaders and the governments sheltering them as separate entities. (ANI)
