Panaji, Jul 1 (PTI) BJP president Amit Shah today said the surgical strike conducted by the Army in Pak-Occupied Kashmir last year changed the worlds outlook towards India and showed the country is committed to "self-defence". The decision to conduct the surgical strike was taken with a political will, he said. An Army battalion headquarter in Uri was attacked by terrorists on September 18 last year in which 19 jawans were killed. Later that month, the Army conducted surgical strike on terror launchpads in PoK. Since the surgical strike, the worlds outlook towards India has changed, he added.
