Moga, February 16, 2019: Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) president Sukhbir Singh Badal today visited the residence of Pulwama terrorist attack martyr Jamal Singh and expressed his sympathies with the bereaved family
The SAD president, who was accompanied with senior leader Jathedar Tota Singh, said Jamal would always be remembered for the ultimate sacrifice he made for the motherland. He assured the family that Jamal’s sacrifice would not go in vain and that Pakistan would have to pay a heavy price for sponsoring terrorism in India.
Later Union minister Harsimrat Kaur Badal attended the last rites of the martyr at Ghalauti village. Mrs. Badal, who got emotional while meeting the family members including the mother and wife of Jamal, said Pakistan would not be allowed to indulge in doublespeak. “We cannot have a situation in which Pakistan mouths peace and simultaneously butchers our brave soldiers”.
Mrs. Badal said she was surprised that the Punjab government had not deputed any minister to attend the last rites of the martyr. “We must be united and give a clear signal that the martyrs will not be slighted in any manner”, she added.
