New Delhi: Chairing an all-party meet to discuss the situation along the India-China border on Friday, PM Narendra Modi asserted that the sacrifice of Indian soldiers will not go in vain.

The virtual meet began with PM Modi and leaders of all major political parties paying tribute to the soldiers who were killed in the line of duty during the violent face-off between India and China in the Galwan Valley on June 15.

“Neither is anyone sitting inside our borders nor is any post been captured. The entire country is hurt and angered by what China did at the LAC,” PM Modi said at the all-party meeting.

“Twenty of our bravehearts were martyred in Ladakh but not before they taught a lesson to those who raised an eye at Bharat Mata,” he added.
