Shatrughan Sinha warns against hasty retaliation over Pulwama attack


Mumbai, Feb 18 (IANS): Actor-politician Shatrughan Sinha, distressed and disturbed by the February 14 terror attack in Pulwama, Jammu and Kashmir, has cautioned against hasty retaliatory action.

"Josh mein kahin apna hosh na kho baithe (we may lose our better sense in haste). I know passions are running high after what has happened in Pulwama. It is a shameful act of cowardice, and we must deal with it in the most stern way possible," Shatrughan said.

"Our honourable Prime Minister has promised us the most befitting response possible to this insane act of violence. We should not retaliate in a fit of passion. All of us Indians are hurt and wounded. We must think deeply about our next move before acting," he cautioned.

While refusing to comment directly on cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu's insensitive comment on the Pulwama carnage, Shatrughan warned against politicians making rash statements.

"Everybody needs to be careful about what they say. Pacifist noises are not what the Indian janta wants to hear. Indians are very angry right now."

Should we finally ban all Pakistani artistes in Bollywood?

Shatrughan said: "This is not an opportune time to even think about cultural exchanges and what should be done about them. Having said that, I'd like to point out that this is the land of Mohammed Rafi, Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle. Why do we need singers from any other country?"

    There is sense in what he says. Our politicians look for political gain. Because of elections coming up, just to show to people that we have done something taking retaliatory steps at this stage may cause heavy casualties on our side also. Even against a weak enemy one has to take planned action and not sudden action when the enemy is just waiting. Take a surprise action when least expected like surgical strike.

    The B.J.P ministers do not know what their portfolios are. Jumbalay dish is a mixture of all ingredients.
    Railway minister will speak about defence.
    Defence minister will speak about budget .
    Smrithi will talk about home .ministry.
    Nirmala seetharaman has has gone on a vacation mode.
    Nobody know what they are doing ,,,This was a huge Security lapse . Remember Feku saying " Mar jawan Mar kisan" 5 years ago and now. nothing has been achieved..
