First, he wanted to know all the facts. And then his first question to me was, who has done it,\u201d Doval said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"6\"\/>\u201cWe will go after them. Zameen mein ho, aasman mein ho, paatal mein ho, woh log jahan bhi hai&#8230; We will not forgive them,\u201d Doval quoted Modi as saying.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>&#8220;Thanks to our intelligence agencies&#8230; they did a brilliant job and within a short period of time, we were able to identify the perpetrators and act with precision,&#8221; Ajit Doval said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>The national security adviser, widely seen as one of the architects of the retaliation for the Pahalgam attack, indicated that India had made up its mind to go to any extent.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"14\"\/>&#8220;Once it starts, we are willing to go as far as necessary for a nation to preserve its sovereignty and&#8230;there are no limits on that. We fight till the last drop of blood. India&#8217;s being more tolerant should not be mistaken for its weakness,&#8221; Doval said, confirming that the terrorists who had targeted their victims on the basis of faith had breached the country&#8217;s pain threshold.<\/p>\n<div class=\"LEzX4\">\n<div class=\"PmOGb\">\n<p class=\"PSf84\">Share your thoughts in the comments<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><button type=\"button\" class=\"sUTYm
