Acknowledging the bravery and professionalism displayed by the Indian Army, the PM said, words can’t do justice to their invaluable contribution towards national safety.

The Indian Army is known for its bravery and professionalism. Words cannot do justice to the invaluable contribution of the Indian Army towards national safety.”
