After hearing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's strongly worded speech delivered in Kozhikode, Kerala, the widow of one of the 18 slain soldiers has called on India to retaliate in a similar manner as Pakistan.

Sepoy Dinesh Geri's widow, Sarita, told ANI, "Every time a soldier is killed, his family is the one to suffer, not anyone else. I want to ask the Prime Minister that India should retaliate against Pakistan in a similar manner."

Other people present at the rally echoed similar sentiments.

Vijay Gupta said, "I am glad to say that Prime Minister Modi perfectly warned Pakistan for the Uri attack.The message to the people of Pakistan is very clear, correct, well narated and very specific. I call upon the people of Pakistan to come forward and fight a war that defeats unemployment, poverty, illiteracy first. Lets see who wins?"

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday launched a blistering attack on Pakistan on the sidelines of the Bharatiya Janata Party's National Council meeting in Kozhikode, Kerala.
