PM Narendra Modi's Visit To Ladakh Dominates Headlines On Saturday

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's surprise visit to a forward post in Ladakh dominated the front page headlines on Friday. The Prime Minister interacted with troops days after the June 15 border clash with China in which 20 soldiers were killed in the line of duty. "The age of expansionism is over, this is the age of development. History knows that expansionist forces have either lost or were forced to turn back," he said, addressing soldiers during the visit that served as a morale booster for the forces and a powerful message to China, which has shown unrelenting aggression at the border with incursions seen in satellite images. Hindustan Times, Deccan Herald, The Asian and The Telegraph also published the story as its front page lead.
