If Pak stops terrorism, we will also ‘be like Neeraj Chopra’: Army Chief

NEW DELHI: If Pakistan stops terrorism, the Army would also “be like Neeraj Chopra”, Army Chief General Bipin Rawat said Wednesday, referring to the Asian Games javelin gold medallist’s gesture of reaching out to his Pakistani competitor.

Rawat, while speaking at an event to felicitate Asian Games medallists from the Army, also said the situation in Kashmir improved in 2017 as compared to the year before and in 2018, it was improving further.

Asked if there was any “sportsmanship” on display at the Indo-Pak border, Rawat said, “They should make the first move, they should stop terrorism. If they stop terrorism, we will also be like Neeraj Chopra.” (AGENCIES)
