Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in an attempt to boast about his contribution to the Balakot airstrike in his interview with News Nation on May 11, has yet again displayed his breathtaking ignorance on matters of science and technology.
When journalist Peenaz Tyagi asked him about what transpired on the night of the airstrike, February 26, the PM said, “It was raining that night very heavily. At around 12 midnight, this I am saying for the very first time..I don’t know how our officers feel about this.. a thought crossed our mind about the plan. We weren’t sure if we would be able to go or not. Then finally, experts opined that we should change the day of the strike….now I’m not someone who personally knows this much science… I thought that there are clouds..there is rain..there is a benefit, it can provide us cover from radars. Then ultimately, I said, there are clouds, let’s go. ”
You don’t have to be an expert to know that that’s not how radar technology works.
He makes the claim at around 27:00 in the full video uploaded by the BJP Youtube channel.
Presumably because they realised the foolishness of the remark, BJP official Twitter handle deleted the tweet that had quoted the PM.
However, at the time of writing this article, similar tweets posted by BJP state handles had not been deleted.
AltNews Co-founder Mohammed Zubair archived the tweet in case BJP Gujarat handle also deletes it.
Author Tony Joseph said that if this is the thinking that is going behind national security issues, “then we have a national security crisis that needs urgent attention.”
