New Delhi, June 20 : The Kisan Congress on Saturday staged a peaceful candle light protest in the national capital over the killing of 20 Indian soldiers by the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) troops in Ladakh's Galwan valley. Over 50 Kisan Congress workers along with National Vice President Surender Solanki arrived at India Gate to pay tribute to the martyred soldiers. Targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Solanki said, "It is unfortunate that yesterday the Prime Minister said that there was no violation on borders. This is an insult to the martyrdom of our brave soldiers." He said that earlier there was a question that our Army Generals are fully empowered to smash the enemy. "Why were they sent unarmed?" he questioned adding that the Chinese media was showing Modi's Friday's statement and saying Galwan valley is ours. Solanki said, " This is a huge tragedy and the Congress will continue to question it. Galwan Valley is an integral part of India." He said that neither soldier nor farmer are safe in the country today. "The largest number of soldiers are the sons of poor farmers, when the family is feeding 130 crore people, then their son is keeping the country's borders safe," the Kisan Congress leader said. His remarks came a day after Modi categorically stated in the all-party meeting on the Chinese intrusion in the Galwan Valley and the killing of Indian soldiers that "no Indian post or territory is occupied by anyone." The Prime Minister had emphasized that all necessary steps for national security and construction of necessary infrastructure will continue to be taken at a fast pace. Modi had also reassured the leaders about the capability of the armed forces to defend the borders and said that they have been given a free hand to take all necessary steps. /IANS
