India determined to protect its territorial integrity-Rajnath Singh

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh  on Wednesday said India has been facing challenges on its borders but remains determined to its sovereignty and territorial integrity. Speaking at the Diamond Jubilee celebrations of the National Defence College in Delhi, Rajanth Singh said India is a peace-loving country and that peace can only be achieved through deterrence of war.He added that India’s strategic partnership with the US is stronger than ever before.

Rajnath Singh said Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a special interest in reaching out to partner countries in West Asia, South East and East Asia. “We have enhanced the scope and quality of our relations with Saudi Arabia, UAE and Oman in the West and with Indonesia, Vietnam and South Korea in the East,” Rajnath Singh said. Singh said working with like-minded countries, India has achieved substantial success to not only expose Pakistan’s regressive policies but also make it increasingly difficult to continue with its previous business as usual approach.

Perhaps the most fundamental lesson that the roller coaster of the rise and fall of nations taught us was that peace cannot necessarily be achieved by a desire for peace but by the ability to deter war: Defence Minister Rajnath Singh pic.twitter.com/Eu8f7cft4D
