-
PRIME MINISTER Narendra Modi on Wednesday asked the Congress to tell the nation who prevented India's _ military response after the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks linked to Pakistan, and accused the party of weakening the fight against terrorism when in power.
He accused the Congress-led UPA government (2004-14) of weakening the fight against terror because of which the country has paid a heavy price.
"A Congress leader, who has also been Union home minister, has said that a country prevented India's military retaliation post-26/11 Mumbai terror attacks in 2008. The party should clarify," Modi said while addressing a gathering after inaugurating the first phase of the Navi Mumbai International Airport, Aqua Line of Mumbai metro and other projects.
The PM emphasised Mumbai has always been the country's financial capital and a vibrant metropolis, making it vulnerable to terror strikes.
