Haryana's main opposition party Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) has reminded the BJP-led central government of the promise it made during the last Lok Sabha elections that India will behead 10 Pakistani soldiers for one Indian soldier killed if it comes to power.

"It's time for the BJP-led central government to fulfil the commitment it made to the nation," senior INLD leader and former Haryana Police chief Mahender Singh Malik said on Monday while speaking to media persons after paying tributes to the Uri martyrs.

Condemning the Pakistan-sponsored terror on the Uri army camp in Baramulla district of Jammu and Kashmir, in which 18 Indian soldiers were killed, Malik said India must fight back on such terror attacks.

The former police chief said that the Uri army camp attack was second big attack after Pathankot attack, in which six Indian soldiers were killed.

Malik was in Gurgaon to meet party workers in connection with preparations for the upcoming rally in Karnal on September 25 to coincide with the 103rd birth anniversary of former Deputy Prime Minister Devi Lal.
