For Every One Of Ours, Kill Five Of Theirs: Amarinder Singh To NDTV

Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on Thursday called for a strong response to Chinese aggression in Ladakh that peaked with the death of 20 Indian soldiers in a clash this week, saying, "If they kill one of ours, kill five of theirs."

Following are the highlights of what Amarinder Singh said:

If they kill one of ours, kill five of theirs

Somebody should be answerable for this. Why were they sent without weapons?

This is not the stone age that you send unarmed soldiers to fight the Chinese

Send RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh) workers with lathis instead not our soldiers

I don't know who issued this orders. Troops should always patrol with weapons

The Chinese came prepared, our boys were not prepared

My first posting was in 1963 on the Chinese border, none of us went out without our weapons

What do you mean you can't do a Balakot? What are the Biharis and Punjabis sitting there for? The moment this incident this took place, there should have been a reaction? You think we should chicken out to the Chinese?
