BJP MLA in Telangana T Raja Singh Friday called for an attack on Pakistan to teach the neighbouring nation a lesson for supporting terrorism against India.
He was speaking in the Assembly on a motion condemning the Pulwama terror attack, in which 40 CRPF men were killed, and expressing sympathy with their families.
Singh urged Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao to write to Prime Minister Narendra Modi that there should be a "decisive battle" with Pakistan this time.
"Chief Minister, write a letter to the prime minister that now we cannot lose our brave Indian soldiers.
"This time, let there be a decisive battle. This time, let there be an attack on Pakistan, the Telangana government and every young man of Telangana is with you. You write such a letter," he said.
Singh, who is the lone BJP MLA in the Assembly, said everyone in the country took out candle marches or protested in other forms against the attack on February 14.

"Today, the entire India is standing (united) by coming on one stage that this time we have to answer Pakistan under any circumstances. It is not like there are terrorists in Pakistan. Pakistan itself is a den of terrorists or a big factory.
"Nothing will happen by getting two, four, five, some people banned or arrested, through the central government, which is appearing in the media," he said.
Alleging that attacks were taking place daily in Kashmir against the Army, he said the issue would not be resolved until the neighbouring country is taught a "lesson in its language."
