Pulwama attack anniversary: PM Modi pays tribute to slain troops
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday paid tribute to the CRPF personnel who lost their lives in a militant attack on their convoy in Pulwama on this day in 2019, reported PTI.
He tweeted, “Remembering our valorous heroes who we lost on this day in Pulwama. We will never forget their supreme sacrifice. Their courage motivates us to build a strong and developed India.”
Over 40 soldiers had made the supreme sacrifice after a suicide bomber rammed his vehicle into the CRPF convoy.
In a retaliatory attack, the Indian Air Force targeted terror camps in Balakot in Pakistan.
