Fadnavis Links Delhi Blast to Pakistan Broader
In a highly charged statement that has immediately intensified the ongoing discourse on cross-border terrorism, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has directly attributed the recent deadly Delhi Red Fort blast to Pakistan, claiming the attack was part of a larger, coordinated plan targeting major Indian metropolitan centers. Speaking at an event to commemorate the 17th anniversary of the 26/11 terror attacks, Fadnavis articulated a sharp political and national security framework, asserting that the neighboring country, recognizing its inability to secure victory in a conventional conflict, has deliberately chosen to wage a Pakistan Proxy War Strategy India National Security apparatus must continually confront.
The statement specifically referenced the car explosion that occurred near the Red Fort Metro Station on November 10th, an attack that tragically claimed over a dozen lives. Fadnavis contended that the Delhi incident was not an isolated event but a desperate attempt by Pakistan to “assert its presence once again” following successful preemptive operations by Indian intelligence agencies. According to the Chief Minister, the intent of the terror outfits responsible was far more sinister: to “detonate bombs in every corner of India,” with the economic capital, Mumbai, listed among the primary targets.
