India Will Not Tolerate Any Nuclear Blackmail: PM Modi's Strong Message To World

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a strong statement on Monday, warned Pakistan that India will not tolerate any form of nuclear blackmail. Addressing the nation on Operation Sindoor, he made it clear to the world that terror and dialogue, terror and trade, and terror and water cannot coexist.

During his speech, PM Modi affirmed, “India will not tolerate any form of nuclear blackmail. We will take decisive action against terrorist bases that operate under the guise of such threats. There will be no distinction between government-sponsored terrorism and terrorist organisations.”

He highlighted how the world witnessed the grim reality of Pakistan during Operation Sindoor, when high-ranking officials from the Pakistani military openly stood in solidarity with terrorists. "This is the strongest evidence of state-sponsored terrorism," he said.

The Prime Minister reiterated that any future dialogue between India and Pakistan will solely focus on the return of Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK) and terrorism.

He described Operation Sindoor as India's policy on terrorism and the new normal, stating, “Operation Sindoor is now India's policy against terrorism. This operation has drawn a new line, it's the new normal.”

Reaffirming his stance, PM Modi stated, “This is not an era of war, but it is also not an era of terrorism.”

Speaking on India's defense capabilities, PM Modi emphasised, “We have defeated Pakistan every time on the battlefield, and this time, Operation Sindoor has added a new dimension... During this operation, our 'Made in India' weapons proved their authenticity... We must remain united against all forms of terrorism. Our unity is our greatest strength.”

Further in his speech, PM Modi addressed Pakistan’s longstanding support for terrorism, saying, "For the past two and a half decades, many handlers of terrorists were openly roaming around in Pakistan, conspiring against India. India eliminated them in one swift action. Pakistan was rattled and in despair. Instead of cooperating with India, it made a second mistake, it chose to attack us..."

He elaborated on Pakistan’s response following India's aggressive action, stating, “After facing heavy losses, Pakistan sought ways to escape. It appealed to the global community to de-escalate tensions and, after suffering a severe defeat, the Pakistani army contacted India's Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) on May 10. By then, India had destroyed large portions of terrorist infrastructure and eliminated numerous terrorists. When Pakistan assured that it would refrain from further terrorist activity and military aggression, India took that into consideration.”

Concluding his address, PM Modi expressed deep gratitude for the Indian Armed Forces and called upon all Indian citizens to remain united.
