External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Friday asserted that India will never give in to nuclear blackmail, and those who “sponsor, nurture and utilize” terrorism should be made to pay a heavy price.
Speaking at a convocation ceremony of foreign students of Parul University, a private varsity here, he also commented that it has become a “fashion in some quarters to openly become transactional” in international relations.
“In Pahalgam (terror attack) what we saw was an attempt to devastate the tourism economy of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir as well as an evil design to bring (about) religious discord,” the minister said. PTI
