Prime Minister Narendra Modi firmly criticized Pakistan’s long-standing role in fostering terrorism. In an interview with US-based podcaster Lex Fridman, Modi said the world now clearly understands where the roots of terror lie. He also shared his thoughts on India’s dominance over Pakistan in cricket and the global impact of sports.
PM Modi accused Pakistan of being the epicenter of terrorism. He stated that Pakistan’s actions have caused immense suffering not only to India but to the entire world.
“The world is no longer in doubt about where the roots of terror lie,” Modi said with deep concern. He stressed that Pakistan’s involvement in fostering terrorism remains a global issue.
Modi highlighted India’s superior cricket record against Pakistan in ICC tournaments. He referenced Virat Kohli’s century that led India to a six-wicket win over Pakistan in the 2025 Champions Trophy group stage. India eventually won the tournament.
“When it comes to the game, I’m not an expert. But the results speak for themselves. India and Pakistan played a match, and the result showed who was better,” Modi said.
Pakistan has only beaten India twice in ICC tournaments — in the 2017 Champions Trophy final and the 2021 T20 World Cup group stage.
PM Modi credited his government’s efforts for India’s rise as a sporting nation. He mentioned India’s potential bid to host the 2036 Olympics.
He also discussed football, naming Diego Maradona and Lionel Messi as the greatest players of all time. “Maradona was a hero for the 1980s generation, while Messi is the icon for today’s generation,” Modi said.
Modi praised India’s growing football culture, highlighting the progress of both the men’s and women’s teams. He reiterated that sports unite people and play a crucial role in human evolution.
