Modiji must walk the talk

This is not the first visit by an Indian prime minister or defence minister to Siachen, and it may be recalled that soon after India established control of the glacier in 1984, then Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi took keen interest in the aviation-related aspects of accessing the glacier. Subsequently, during the first NDA regime, defence minister George Fernandes was an ardent Siachen visitor and Manmohan Singh also paid one visit to the glacier in 2005.

Symbolism is only one part of the political effort. Modi and his cabinet colleagues entrusted with the national security responsibility have to methodically enhance tangible national military capability in the four years ahead of them.
At the moment earnest, patriotic intent has been repeatedly articulated by Modi; but the litmus test will be in empathetic political and budgetary support to the various military-related initiatives that have been announced in Siachen and elsewhere.

Yes...Only the Corruupt Congress Clan is exempt from keeping their word.

This guy has done more in 6 months than what the cong (i) did in the last 60 months.
