Leh ,Prime Minister Narendra Modi today addressed officers, soldiers and air
warriors of the Indian Army and Air Force at Leh. He condemned the continuing
proxy war by Pakistan. He said that the neighbouring country has lost the
strength to fight a conventional war, but continues to engage in the proxy war
of terrorism. The Prime Minister said the Indian Armed Forces are suffering
more casualties from terrorism than from war. He said this is a global problem
and all humanitarian forces of the world should unite to fight it. India is
committed to strengthening and uniting these humanitarian forces.

The Prime Minister mentioned provisions made in the recent Union Budget towards
the modernization and welfare of the armed forces, including ‘One Rank One
Pension’. He also promised that the National War Memorial would be built and
