The Odisha cabinet on Tuesday passed a resolution praising the Indian Air Force (IAF) for destroying terrorist training camps in Pakistan.

Chief Secretary A.P. Padhi said the cabinet passed a resolution applauding the IAF for pre-dawn air strikes on terror camps across the Line of Control (LoC).

"Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik moved a motion in the cabinet praising the action of IAF to protect our country. The cabinet unanimously adopted a resolution to this effect," said a statement from Chief Minister's Office (CMO).

Earlier, the Chief Minister said: "I salute the IAF for having taken action to protect our country."

Meanwhile, the cabinet also approved a proposal to provide compensation to victims in man-animal conflicts within 15 days.
