He added that people from all sections of the society wholeheartedly welcomed the "chadar" sent by PM Modi.
"While on one hand, PM Modi believes in legacy of Sufi Saints to protect human values and justice, on the other hand he is a "nationalistic warrior" against terrorism. Shri Modi has adopted "zero tolerance” policy against terrorism," he further tweeted.
