Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Monday reiterated India's warning that if Pakistan continues to nurture terrorists in its backyard, its existence could be wiped out.

Sinha saluted the valour and indomitable courage of the armed forces for their strong and decisive action against the "terrorist nation" through Operation Sindoor.

"India has warned terror state Pakistan that our forces can attack every inch of its land, and its entire existence could be wiped off the face of earth if it continues to nurture terrorists in its backyard," Sinha said after attending a theatrical performance of Rashtrakavi Ramdhari Singh Dinkar's epic poem Rashmirathi, organised by the University of Jammu.

"I am proud to see that our young generation is fulfilling the dreams of our founding fathers. They are upholding democratic values, protecting the sovereignty and integrity of the nation, and making sure that terror state Pakistan is punished for its misadventure," he said.
