Why are more and more youth joining militancy after Modi came to power?
Modi needs to take Kashmir seriously and not use it as a playground.
Save the lives of our people.
Save the lives of our jawans. #RIPBraveHearts #PulwanaAttack #CRPFJawans pic.twitter.com/FB5y10FsID— Srinivas B V (@srinivasiyc) February 15, 2019
You and me could sleep peacefully last night because this courageous man chose to send his sons to guard our borders. The least we can do to respect his sacrifice is to stop judging & stand united against our enemy nation. #RIPBraveHearts https://t.co/kICkRArexf
