'Pakistan has realized that if it doesn't control terrrorism, India will hit back'

"Pakistan has realized that if it doesn't control terrorist forces, India will hit back and not spare them," said Railway Minister Piyush Goyal on Sunday.

"Terrorist forces in Pakistan are being attacked. Pakistan is realizing that if they don't control this attack then India won't spare them," Goyal said while addressing an event in Mumbai.

He went on to laud Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said that the leadership today is so strong that India can give a befitting reply to anyone who tries to harm the country. "As Prime Minister Modi said I won't let the country stop, I won't let the country drop. Let us all pledge that we won't let the development journey stop," Goyal added.

Reflecting upon the works of the Railways in Mumbai, Goyal said, "Today, Parel station would also start as a terminus. It would be inaugurated by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. Railways along with the state government have come up with a plan to rehabilitate and redevelop Dharavi."

Goyal, along with Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, inaugurated various railway facilities at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) in Mumbai.

"Projects worth Rs. 20 thousand crore approx. are already going on while Rs. 55 thousand crore worth projects are under planning mode and would begin soon," Goyal concluded.
