Ambani, Rajini cite Pahalgam, back 'resolute fighter' PM Modi

PM Modi's resolve to attend the summit, despite a busy schedule following the Pahalgam attack, was lauded by Reliance Industries chairman and MD Mukesh Ambani.

Addressing the gathering, Ambani said, "We know your extraordinary responsibilities - particularly after the recent barbaric terror attack in Pahalgam. Therefore, your coming here sends a strong message. A message of hope, unity, and unshakeable resolve. All of us gathered here offer our heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims."

Ambani further said, "You have the full support of 145 crore Indians in this fight against the enemies of peace, justice and humanity. Their defeat is certain. India's victory is also certain," he said. He credited the large attendance of approximately 10,000 delegates from 90 countries to the determination and vision of the PM.

Superstar Rajinikanth also spoke of the Pahalgam attack which claimed 26 lives. Describing Modi as a 'fighter', he said, "After the barbaric, merciless event that happened at Pahalgam, many told me that govt would postpone this event because of unnecessary criticism, because the event's subject is entertainment. But, I was confident that this event would definitely happen, because I have confidence in my PM - Narendra Modi."

Rajinikanth continued, "He is a fighter. He will meet any challenge, and prove what we have been saying for last decade, that he will face this situation bravely, and bring peace in Kashmir and glory to our country."
