In a 90-minute address to the nation from the ramparts of the Red Fort, Modi made no reference to the situation in the Kashmir Valley which has been rocked by violence after the killing of Hizbul Commander Burhan Wani, but accused Pakistan of glorifying terrorists and celebrating killings in India.

This country will not tolerate terrorism.This country will never bow its head before terrorism, never before Maoists.
