Soon after the Indian Air Force struck in Balakot, Chakothi and Muzaffarabad has destroyed terror camps across the Line of Control (LoC), leaders across the political lines raved about the air strike.

Union minister Prakash Javadekar was the first prominent voice from the government to react on the strike. “This was a necessary step for the security forces. The entire country is backing the forces now”.

Indian National Congress (INC) President Rahul Gandhi tweeted saying: “I salute the pilots of the IAF.”

Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmer’s Welfare Gajendra Singh Shekhawat also tweeted saying this is only the beginning.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal also praised the Air Force for “striking terror targets.”

Another Congress spokesperson Abhishek Manu Singhvi observed that the Air Force’s mission was a “hugely successful” one as it penetrated deep into LoC.

Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tejashwi Yadav and Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav expressed similar reactions.

National Conference leader Omar Abdullah saying this is not a “small strike,” tweeted that the onus is now on Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan who had said that Pakistan will retaliate if India takes action.
