Alandi, 9th May 2025: Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde issued a stern warning to Pakistan amid escalating tensions, stating that if Pakistan does not stop its “monkey tricks,” the Indian Army is capable of wiping it off the map. He further remarked that Pakistan has no ‘aukaat’ (standing) in front of India and that the country will respond appropriately in the current geopolitical scenario.
Shinde was speaking to media in Alandi during the 750th anniversary celebration of Sant Dnyaneshwar Maharaj.
Addressing the ongoing conflict, he said, “I prayed to Mauli (Saint Dnyaneshwar) to protect our nation and our state, and to bring peace and happiness to our people. Our Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and the innocent tourists killed in Pahalgam, we had vowed that their sacrifice would not go in vain. We thought we would respond to bricks with stones, but now bullets are answered with missiles. Pakistan should stay within its limits. This is the new India.”
He added that this is not a time for politics, but a time to support Prime Minister Modi and the Indian Armed Forces. “There will be plenty of opportunities for politics. Right now, patriotism and national security are what matter. We must stand strongly behind our army. No one should politicize this issue. I urge citizens not to spread or believe in fake news. Every directive issued by the Central Government must be followed,” he emphasized.
Shinde also mentioned that Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis conducted a review of Maharashtra’s security earlier today. “The Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, and Police are all on high alert. We are ensuring that no threat reaches our state or country. We will give a fitting reply to Pakistan. They have no ‘aukaat’ to challenge India. If they continue with their drama, our army will not stop until Pakistan is finished,” he concluded.
