The elimination of terrorists may not be because of our system has done well, but with the support of the people. People began to reject. the terrorists and support the process to make the situation better.”

There is no discussion and anyone speaks against the unity and integrity of the country. There has been no discussion with the army in the last 8 years, not even to surrender. “
“In Jammu and Kashmir they killed thousands of people, then Yasin Malik, a member of the JKLF, will come to Delhi and he will shake hands with the Prime Minister. Hurriyat is the mastermind behind this. In the northeast , the people killed hundreds of people. then we started talking to them asking them to stop the violence, there is no negotiation, there is no negotiation and anyone speaks against the unity and integrity of our country. “There was no question, no acceptance. It took time for the message to sink in. In the last 8 years, there was no dialogue, no dialogue with any military. If it was a dialogue it was only liberation and rehabilitation, without political content,” the governor said.
