Union Minister for Home Affairs Amit Shah inaugurated the all-new "29 Special Composite Group" complex of National Security Guard (NSG) at Rajarhat in Kolkata, reports Economic Times.
While addressing the event, he said, "It is the work of NSG to develop fear in people who think and work towards dividing and disrupting peace in our country. And if these people still don't stop, then NSG should retaliate"
"Under Prime Minister Modi, we are following the policy of zero-tolerance against terrorism and NSG takes the leading role in delivering upon it. After PM Modi came to power, a distinct differentiation has been made between India's defence and foreign policy, which wasn't like this in the past," he added.
Apart from inaugurating the building which will serve NSG troopers, Shah also addressed a public rally in the city’s Shaheed Minar Ground in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).
The rally was also attended by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)’s party president JP Nadda. Shah was felicitated by the party’s state unit for passage of CAA in the two houses of Parliament.
Meanwhile, Shah during his visit to Kolkata will also be holding a closed-door meeting with party’s functionaries from the State in presence of Nadda. He is also expected to visit the renowned Kalighat temple in the city.
