He presented the President’s Colour award to Haryana police in Karnal. While addressing the public here, the union minister said, “In 2019, in a cowardly attack on CRPF jawans in Pulwama, 40 jawans were martyred.”
“The names of those 40 soldiers will always remain etched with golden letters in India’s history of bravery and sacrifice. Their sacrifice has a huge contribution to the country’s progress,” he said.
