In response, she shot back, “What do you mean by national security?”
Singhvi said according to Modi, it would mean going to another person’s house and teaching him a lesson.
To this, Dikshit said, “I want to ask you a counter question. Has there been any time that security of this country has not been taken care of, even during Indira ji’s time?

After the air strike, Modi has been questioning why the then United Progressive Alliance government did not respond as strongly after November 2008 attacks, in which 10 Pakistani terrorists targeted a number of places in the financial capital of India, and killed 166 people.
