Union Home Minister Rajanth Singh on Sunday hinted that India might conduct another surgical strike if Pakistan continued to violate ceasefire on the Line of Control (LoC).
"India is now considered to be a powerful country in the world... we will not hesitate in crossing the borders again, if needed," Singh said while speaking at a function here.
"A few months ago, Indian soldiers had entered Pakistan and killed many terrorists," he added.
He also said that India was in favour of having cordial relations with Pakistan. "However, it seems Pakistan does not want good relations with us," he said.
The remarks of the Union minister come in the wake of the recent incidents of ceasefire violations by Pakistan along the LoC in Jammu & Kashmir.
Pakistan has resorted to heavy shelling on the LoC over the past few days.
India also retaliated and killed several Pakistani soldiers and destroyed its outposts and bunkers.
