Emphasizing on the significance of health while interacting with students and faculty members at JIPMER Pondicherry, he stated, “ Health of the nation is fundamental for growth. A person may be very talented, very keen, committed. He wants to give everything to society, he doesn’t have self interest. But what if he’s not in good health! Who is ever keen to contribute for welfare of others becomes an object of sympathy by others. Therefore, Fit India can be the only answer and you are its watchdogs.”

Underlining the success of operation sindoor, Shri Dhankhar stated, “ About two months back, all of us were concerned, worried, and traumatized. On 22nd April, in Pahalgam, the terrorists struck us — they challenged our ethos. The world’s most peace-loving nation, a nation that has never engaged in expansionism, was visited with this horrendous terrorist attack. The Prime Minister pledged to the nation: we will have zero tolerance for terrorism. And, I must congratulate our Armed Forces for having vindicated the promise of the Prime Minister, because Muridke and Bahawalpur are witness to the testimony of potency of our BrahMos. The headquarters of Jaish-e-Mohammad and Lashkar-e-Taiba were demolished — devastatingly — by calibrated, precise, and calculated attacks. The evidence was given to the entire world — that this is a different Bharat: bold, confident, but calculated. Because war is not a solution. Prime Minister Modi has hinted — we are not living in an era of war. We have to take recourse to diplomacy and dialogue. But the message has gone loud and clear. The world has come to realize that indigenous production of defence material means a lot to us.” 

“For any progress, peace is an essential aspect and peace comes from a position of strength. The best guarantee to peace is that we are ever prepared for war and that comes when the national mindset is nation first. We have to believe in our nationalism”, he added. 

Let’s pledge that we should always keep our nation first. That mindset has to be there because the game of war has changed.

Praising the recent decision to send multiparty delegations, Shri Dhankhar said, “ I therefore, appeal to everyone — particularly those in the political class of the country — that issues of nationalism and national security are beyond political parties and interests. I am happy to note that a visionary step by the Prime Minister — to send an all-party delegation of Members of Parliament abroad — has evoked the right response, in the country and outside. All political parties converged. That is the Bharat we need — every day on national security and national development. I am sure this will go a long way.”
