    Give army uniform to all politicians and send to border. Cheers to our leaders for demonetization great success. Terrorism is completely washed out. Pakistan got scared after hearing "we will bring ten heads for one Indian soldier's head". If have little shame, hide your face and never ever come in public. Our soldiers are dying on daily basis and people are busy in giving Adhar card to cow, opening gau shala for cow. Tu tu chi chi. Shame shame. Congress was corrupt, but, not so mean.

    Sadly our 'gober'ment is more bothered about the cows, chimps, tortoises & zebras than our jawans.

    Our pseudo-nationalists use jawans as a cover to protect their political interest.

    Just as demonetization supposed to have weeded out all black money, surgical strikes supposed to have put an end to all the terrorist activities! The realty? The year 2016 recorded highest number ( 64) of casualties of our defense personnel in J&K since last 8 years. Last week the the Chaththisgar massacre were 24 our CRPF men were slain and now this Kupwara thing! All we here is the usual rhetoric ' This is an act of cowardice', ' Our martyrs' sacrifice won't go in vain' etc..and the bhakts are busy celebrating EVM aided victory after victory!

    @Santhosh,
    What benefit our country got from the so called Surgical strike???
    You forgotten that, India has won the two wars against Pakistan in 1965 & 1971 under Congress ruling. But Modi govt utterly failed to stop the ceasefire violation from Pak.
