Speaking on India’s nuclear capabilities, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said India has rejected Pakistan’s threatening policies as the neighbouring country used to warn of having a nuclear button. 

“Akhbaar wale bhi likhte the ki Pakistan ke paas nuclear button hai....hamare paas kya hai... to kya hamne apne nuclear bomb Diwali ke liye rakh hua hain (Even newspapers used to write, Pakistan has nuclear button, what we have got... then a question was, is India’s nuclear bombs meant for Diwali)," Modi made a sarcastic remark at Barmer Stadium here. 

Expressing serious concern of terror attack at churches in Sri Lanka and condoling deaths of innocent people observing Easter, Modi said, “I decided to enter into their territory and finish terrorists to save our soldiers lives.” 

“On this Congress leaders asked for evidence, now they are not raising this question because Ist & IInd phase poll trends have shut their mouths,” he said, making a witty remark: “Chot udhar hui, peera inhe hui, aur aansu bhi behane lage (The wound was there, but they felt the pain and even tears started flowing).” 

“We have created fear in the minds of terrorists by entering into their home territory,” he further said and reminded that there was no incident like Ajmer blast, Mumbai terror carnage in the last five years. 

At Chittorgarh rally, he accused the Congress government of diverting water supply to Pakistan under Sindhu-Water Agreement for the sake of votes.
