Calling PM Narendra Modi “Sankat Mochan”, Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi on Wednesday said that the Prime Minister has always stepped up to save humanity, referring to the evacuation drive launched by India to bring back its citizens from the war-torn Afghanistan where the Taliban has recently seized control.
Speaking to a news agency, about Operation Devi Shakti, Naqvi said, “Our country is very lucky that it has a ‘Sankat Mochan’ leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In times of crisis, he has always stepped up to save humanity.
When the Covid-19 pandemic broke out, the operation of bringing back citizens stuck in different parts of the world was carried out swiftly under the leadership of PM Modi.”
India on Tuesday termed the evacuation operation from Afghanistan as Operation Devi Shakti.
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar informed on Twitter on Tuesday, “Op Devi Shakti continues. 78 evacuees from Kabul arrive via Dushanbe. Salute @IAF_MCC, @AirIndiain and #TeamMEA for their untiring efforts. #DeviShakti.”
Under Operation Devi Shakti, an Air India flight carrying 78 passengers, including 25 Indian citizens arrived in New Delhi on Tuesday night from Tajikistan’s Dushanbe.
Naqvi further stated that not only Indian citizens but “all those people who want to come to India” are being flown to the country safely.
“And all those who were protesting against the Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAA), today should feel shameful,” said the Union Minister.
