Army Tweets Poem “Kauravas and Pandavas

After "non-military, pre-emptive air strikes" by Indian Air Force (IAF) across the Line of Control on Tuesday, targeting the biggest terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed, Indian Army shared a poem that connects to the people instantly in current mood.

"If you are docile and polite before the enemy, he may consider you as a coward, the way Kauravas treated Pandavas," the army tweeted a Hindi poem, with the hashtag #AlwaysReady.

'क्षमाशील हो रिपु-समक्ष
तुम हुए विनीत जितना ही,
दुष्ट कौरवों ने तुमको
कायर समझा उतना ही।

सच पूछो, तो शर में ही
बसती है दीप्ति विनय की,
सन्धि-वचन संपूज्य उसी का जिसमें शक्ति विजय की।'#IndianArmy #AlwaysReady pic.twitter.com/bUV1DmeNkL

Additional Director General tweeted a poem which was written by Hindi poet Ramdhari Singh ‘Dinkar’. Peace overtures, the poem says, is possible only when you are in a powerful position and capable of a win.

According to the sources, the air strike was continued for 21 minutes which is 100 percent successful and went on exactly as planned.
