Modi has ‘decided’ date of war with China, Pakistan

Bharatiya Janata Party’s Uttar Pradesh unit chief Swatantra Dev Singh has stoked a controversy with his remark that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has ‘decided’ the date of war with China and Pakistan.

“Like the decisions on Ram Mandir and Article 370, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has decided when there would be war with Pakistan and China,” he said in a video that has surfaced on social media. “Sambandhit tithi tai hai,” Singh opined.

His remarks came amid tension at the Line of Actual Control in Ladakh between India and China, where the two Asian giants have massed troops over recent months.
