The whole nation has been standing alongside its security forces."
" While there has been considerable improvement in security environment and dividends have started to reach masses, any distracting and inciting comments and theories by some quarters are unhelpful and undermining the overall national effort."
"Synergized national response is the prime requirement at this time to successfully conclude our efforts."
