PM Modi Vows Decisive Action Against Terror Attack At Press Conference With Angolan President

Addressing a joint press conference with Angolan President João Manuel Goncalves Lourenco, PM Modi thanked Angola for its support and condolences against terror attack.

“We are firmly united in our stance against terrorism,” said PM Modi. “I expressed my gratitude to President Lourenco and the people of Angola for their sympathies for the victims of the Pahalgam attack.”

The Prime Minister asserted India’s determination to act. “We are committed to taking firm and decisive actions against terrorists and those who support them. We thank Angola for standing with us in our fight against terrorism,” he added.

Terror Attack In Pahalgam Linked To Pakistan-Based Group

Four heavily armed terrorists affiliated with The Resistance Front (TRF), an offshoot of the Pakistan-based terrorist group Lashkar-e-Taiba, carried out the April 22 assault in Pahalgam.

Authorities identified two of the attackers as Pakistani nationals.

Emerging from the dense forested terrain, they opened indiscriminate fire on a group of tourists, causing one of the deadliest attacks in recent years in the region.

India Responds With Swift Measures Against Terrorism

On April 23, Prime Minister Modi chaired an emergency meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS), where India announced a range of decisive measures against Pakistan.

These included:

  • Suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty
  • Closure of the Attari border crossing
  • Cancellation of all visas issued to Pakistani nationals
  • Crackdown on Pakistani YouTube channels and X (formerly Twitter) handles
  • Downgrading of diplomatic ties by reducing the High Commission staff in Pakistan

These actions underscore India’s no-tolerance policy toward terrorism and those enabling it across borders.

PM Modi Sends Stern Warning To Terror Sponsors

Following the CCS meeting, PM Modi issued a stern warning.

“We will identify, trace, and punish every terrorist and their supporters. We will pursue them to the ends of the Earth,” he declared.

India’s Tough Stance Marks Shift In Counter-Terror Strategy

The comprehensive response reflects a major escalation in India’s counter-terrorism strategy.

It signals New Delhi’s resolve to uphold national security with a zero-compromise approach toward cross-border terrorism.
