At the beginning of the meeting, the Prime Minister said, ‘I want to assure the country that the sacrifice of our soldiers will not go in vain. India’s integrity and sovereignty is supreme for us and nothing can stop us from protecting it. India wants peace but India is able to answer appropriately in every situation on instigation.
