Karnataka Minister's Bold Stance and Rising Tensions on India-Pakistan Border

In a bold declaration, Karnataka Minister BZ Zameer Ahmed Khan has said he is ready to sacrifice his life for India, claiming he would even act as a 'suicide bomber' against Pakistan, if allowed by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government. Khan underscored that Indian Muslims have no allegiance to Pakistan.

This statement comes at a time of escalating tensions between India and Pakistan after the Indian armed forces targeted terrorist infrastructures in retaliation to previous attacks. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has reviewed the situation in the aftermath of a foiled drone strike by Pakistan, with senior military officials assessing the security postures.

Indian forces reported multiple Pakistani drone and ceasefire violations, which were effectively countered by the domestically produced Akash missile defense system. Defence officials confirm its crucial role along the Pakistan border in thwarting attacks, emphasizing India's commitment to national security amidst Pakistan's provocations.
