New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday hailed India Armed Forces on their massive display of military prowess, saying that the forces have delivered a crushing blow to terrorist establishments in Pakistan, destroying not only their infrastructure but also their morale. PM Narendra Modi's government has been resolute in its stance against terrorism, and Operation Sindoor marked a huge benchmark in India's fight against cross-border terrorism.
The operation, launched in response to the brutal Pahalgam terror attack, showcased India's capability to target terrorist networks with precision and surgical accuracy. The Indian Air Force, Army, and Navy worked in tandem to execute the operation, demonstrating the country's growing military might and technological advancements.
Prime Minister Modi explained, “Today, every terrorist knows the consequences of wiping Sindoor from the foreheads of our sisters and daughters….Terrorists dared to wipe the Sindoor from the foreheads of our sisters; that's why India destroyed the very headquarters of terror…Pakistan had prepared to strike at our borders… but India hit them right at their core…Operation Sindoor has redefined the fight against terror… setting a new benchmark, a new normal.”
Operation Sindoor was a testament to India's commitment to eliminating terrorism in all its forms. The operation's success can be attributed to the country's advanced air defence systems, including the S-400 Triumf and Barak-8 missiles, which successfully intercepted hundreds of drones and missiles fired by Pakistan. The Integrated Air Command and Control System (IACCS) and Akashteer system played a crucial role in managing India's air defence during the operation.
PM Modi warned Pakistan, saying, "The Pakistani Army, the government of Pakistan… the way they continue to nurture terrorism, one day it will lead to Pakistan's own destruction."

The Indian government has made it clear that Operation Sindoor is a message to Pakistan that terrorism will not be tolerated. The operation's success has dealt a big blow to Pakistan's terrorist networks, and the country will struggle to recover from the losses.
