​New Delhi: Indian Twitteratis on Thursday congratulated and thanked the Indian Army and Prime Minister Narendra Modi for conducting surgical strikes on terror camps along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir.
Following the news of surgical strikes, common people took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the same. One user wrote that "whatever the political party you belong to, yesterday's surgical strike was apt one and support to PM Narendra Modi".
Another one shared that this step by the Indian Army gives out the "clear message that India cannot tolerate any such activities".
Some of the users took a jibe saying that "Indian Army has started celebrating Diwali little early by bursting bombs as crackers in surgical strike".
