Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday said the country has seen an 80 per cent reduction in terrorism in Kashmir, insurgency in the Northeast and violence from Left Wing Extremism under the Narendra Modi government.
The Home Minister made this statement during a media event in Nagpur.
Earlier in the day, in Pune, Amit Shah met the children of Kashmir police personnel who lost their lives in the line of duty.
“Today, I can say that under the Modi government, there has been an 80 per cent reduction in terrorism in Kashmir, insurgency in the Northeast and violence from Left Wing Extremism,” he said.
The home minister also appreciated the fact that 1.8 crore tourists visited Jammu and Kashmir in a year, which he called a “big deal”.
“Every house in Kashmir has been provided with tap water and electricity, which is a big change,” he said.
