He said that those criticizing the Indian security personnel even though they are observing great restrain in dealing with violent crowd, need to look at the neighbouring country, which has killed more than 100 terrorists in one go while carrying anti-terror operations in Afghanistan. The Pakistan Prime Minister has authorized the army to take out terrorists wherever they might be and even those providing shelter to them.
Prof. Virender Gupta said that if Pakistan can cross the border and hit the terrorists in Afghanistan then India too has the right to launch anti-terror operations and destroy the terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan occupied part of Jammu and Kashmir.

Lashkar-e-Toiba and Jaish-e-Mohammad, Taliban etc. are being supported and patronized by Pakistan.
Prof. Virender Gupta said that it is time for India to tell the Pakistan that it will not further tolerate any such anti-India acts and holds the right to enter Pakistan area to target the terrorists.
