Addressing a public meeting in Uttar Pradesh's Varanasi, he said, "Everyone understands that Pakistan is upset. But Congress and the Samajwadi Party (SP) cannot handle the pain that Pakistan is going through.

Anyone with common sense should be able to answer, do we need to wait to kill terrorists? Should we have given them a chance to flee?"PM Modi further alleged that the SP gave a clean chit to terrorists when it was in power."They are the same people who would give a clean chit to terrorists when they were in power in UP, and now they are upset when terrorists are killed.
