Delivering keynote address during the celebration of the Foundation Day of Laghu Udyog Bharti here today, Kumar said China had constructed nine airports in Pakistan to make its permanent base there, which were completely destroyed by India forces during the Operation Sindoor.
He said Pakistan had used Chinese and Turkey technology and India has its indigenous technology and we showed the world that we are on the top. “China had constructed airports in Pakistan to be permanently there which Pakistan was going to use to attack India but they were completely destroyed by the Indian Armed forces”.
He said China had never dreamed that its airports will be destroyed by India. Besides, India also destroyed within seconds three army bases in Pakistan, he added.
The RSS senior leader said the drones supplied by Turkey to Pakistan during Operation Sindoor also met the same fate as they were also destroyed by Indian forces in air.

He said there is total unrest in Pakistan and people are in great distress there whether it is Sindh, Baluchistan, Pakhtunistan, Baltistan or other provinces, there is unrest. The Mohajirs are not being considered the citizens of Pakistan even after over 75 years of its formation, he added.
