New Delhi: The BJP on Monday slammed the Congress for questioning Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the issue of Chinese infiltration, saying no country could challenge India's territorial integrity under present regime.
Responding to the charges made by Congress leader Randeep Surjewala, wherein he had said that on the night of August 29-30 Chinese troops attempted to infiltrate near the Pangong Tso lake and where the Prime Minister was, BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra said as long as there is a government led by Modi, no country can threaten the sovereignty of India.
On questions about the 'red eyes' of Prime Minister Narendra Modi by Surjewala, the BJP said we have 'red eyes' but the Congress has 'wet eyes'.

"The red eyes are with India, Prime Minister Modi and the Indian Army that is why India's sovereignty is intact. Nobody dares to look India in the eye. Every child looks with utmost belief in the Indian Army and PM Modi. As long as the government and the Army stand united, no one can play with the sovereignty of the country," Patra said in a press conference here at the party headquarters.
The BJP spokesperson said the Ministry of Defence had issued a statement on China. The BJP salutes the Indian Army. The valour with which the Army has performed its duty on the border deserves a salute. We bow before them and thank them for their bravery.
Patra attacked the Congress asking why does the Congress cry when India does a surgical strike to eliminate terrorists.
He also levelled allegations of corruption against the grand old party, saying Rajiv Gandhi Foundation had received money from Mehul Choksi, the fugitive businessman.
