BJP National Spokesperson and MP Meenakshi Lekhi said after the India-Pakistan War in 1971 the then government had conveniently forgotten to bring back 54 India’s Prisoners of War (PoW). But the present government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, had succeeded in bringing back IAF Wing Commander Abhinandan to India.

She was addressing the gathering at ‘Panchajanya’, a mega youth conclave, organised at Malpe Beach by Namo Bharath.

Lekhi said India’s leadership was capable of making Pakistan succumb to the pressure. “India under Modi is growing and is becoming the global super power.”

She said that Pakistan has been playing deceptive game against India since decades and India had waited for a
leader like Modi since a long time.

“This nation wants a leader who dares to rectify the mistakes committed by the leaders in the past,” she said.

Lekhi said she was aware of the issue of seven fishermen missing from Malpe since December 15, 2018.

She said that there were hopes that the list of missing Indian fishermen with Dubai includes the names of fishermen who are missing from Malpe.
