Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday morning visited the Adampur Air Base, where he was briefed by Air Force personnel and he also interacted with soldiers.
On Monday evening, the Prime Minister had also addressed the nation regarding the terror attack of Pahalgam in Jammu and India's retaliatory action in the form of Operation Sindoor.
This visit comes days after the intense conflict between India and Pakistan following Indian strikes in terror sites in the neighbouring country on May 7.
In a post on the social media platform X, the Prime Minister said, "Earlier this morning, I went to AFS Adampur and met our brave air warriors and soldiers. It was a very special experience to be with those who epitomise courage, determination and fearlessness. India is eternally grateful to our armed forces for everything they do for our nation."
Narendra Modi addressed the nation on Monday, May 12, after Pakistan's ceasefire violations.
Previously on May 10, both India and Pakistan had arrived at an understanding after four days of intense exchange of fire.
During this address, he said that Operation Sindoor is a strike against the terror infrastructure of Pakistan in response to the Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed 26 lives, was not just an operation but a doctrinal change and a policy against terrorism.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi added that this is not an era of war but also not an era of terrorism, in a message directed at Pakistan.
He further added that Operation Sindoor has carved out a new benchmark in India's fight against terrorism and it has set up a new parameter and new normal.
Earlier, the Director Generals of Military Operations (DGMO) of India and Pakistan had held talks on Monday over the ceasefire understanding.
In this meeting, it was agreed that both sides will consider immediate measures to ensure troop reduction from the borders and forward areas, the Indian Army said.
However, last night the Prime Minister in his address said that Pakistan's army as well as the government are encouraging terrorism and that it will destroy Pakistan one day.
He added that zero tolerance against terrorism is the guarantee for a better world.
