Defence Minister Rajnath Singh told students in Manipal that India does not provoke any country, and at the same time will not spare anyone who tries to harm the country’s unity and integrity.

Mr. Singh said: “… India has led the world on issues like terrorism and has been successful in garnering support to root out the menace. The countries, which use terrorism as a tool, are now well aware of India’s capabilities. India does not provoke any country, nor does it spare anyone who tries to harm its unity and integrity...”
Describing the present era as knowledge-intensive and constantly evolving, the Defence Minister called for upgrading the quality and quantity of human capital, pivotal for the development of a country.
