Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar on Friday expressed his frustration over the ongoing political slugfest in the name of surgical strike and its video proof. 

Speaking at a public event in New Delhi, Parrikar urged everyone to respect Indian Army, "Everyone should acknowledge and respect the contributions made by brave Indian Army soldiers. We should observe some limits while questioning Indian Army."

"I do not want to comment on any particular leader, but politicising Indian Army actions'is wrong," said Defence leader. 

Parrikar, who was attending ramlila staged by famous Luv-Kush Ramlila Committee, denied any political motives behind his presence. 
"I am here to watch Ramlila because I am an HIndu, now you can make out any meaning you want from this," Parrikar said.
