Speaking on the occasion, the Prime Minister said that the brave deeds done by these children are proof that God has kept in each one of us, an element that inspires us all to live for others. He said not everyone gets a chance to die for others, but everyone has a chance to live for others. However, there are very few who are actually able to accomplish this.

Commending the children for their brave and selfless acts, the Prime Minister said that they had shown courage in the face of adversity, without bothering about the consequences. He said the "biggest beauty” of the deeds performed by the brave children, was that, when faced with a certain situation, they could not stop themselves from acting with courage. He said that in the process, they had inspired others in society.
