Accusing Pakistan of using terrorism as a state policy against India, Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi today said the Modi government would like to assure the people of the country that in the battle of peace versus terrorism "terror and its masters" will be destroyed.
While paying tributes to the brave soldiers who lost their lives in yesterday's Uri terror attack, Minister of State for Minority Affairs (Independent Charge) Naqvi said that the Army is capable to defeat any conspiracy against our nation.
He said that India wants "good relations" with all its neighbors but if Pakistan doesn't stop using its soil for anti-India activities, it will have to pay a "heavy price" for conspiracy against India.
"Pakistan has been using terrorism as a state policy against India. But the Modi Government assures the people of the country that in the battle of peace versus terrorism, terror and its masters will be destroyed," a statement quoted the Minister as saying during a book release here.
Naqvi said that Pakistan has been "exposed" before the entire world "only because of "zero tolerance" policy adopted by the NDA Government against terrorism.
Pakistan has been isolated in the entire world and its image has become of a "terrorist nation", he added.
