Narendra Modi on Monday unveiled the country's first National War Memorial, which is located in Delhi. Speaking after the inaugural, the Prime Minister mentioned his government's achievements on the defence front.
The demand for a War Memorial has been there for many decades. In the last decade, there were one or two attempts but nothing concrete could happen. We are continuously working towards making the Army self-reliant, the decisions which were thought to be impossible earlier have now been made possible, he said.
Modi attacked the Gandhi-Nehru family on the occasion. From Bofors to Helicopter deal, all the investigations are pointing to one family. It says a lot. These people are now putting all the efforts to make sure that Rafale aircraft don't arrive in the country. In 2009, Forces demanded 1,86,000 bullet-proof jackets but faced enemies without them. Our govt in 4.5 years bought over 2,30,000 bullet-proof jackets, Modi said.
