Operation Sindoor a symbol of India's resolve: Rajnath Singh hails armed forces’ precision strikes

New Delhi: Defence minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday hailed Operation Sindoor and said armed forces have delivered a decisive blow to anti-India elements in Pakistan. "Those who were against India and the terrorist organisations that attacked our country and devastated many families, the armed forces have brought them to justice through Operation Sindoor. The entire nation is today saluting the bravery of the Indian forces," he said.

Singh was speaking virtually at the inauguration of Brahmos Aerospace Integration and Testing Facility in Lucknow. He said it is not just a military action, but a symbol of India's political, social and military willpower. "This operation is a demonstration of India's firm resolve and military strength against terrorism."

Singh said armed forces did not target ordinary citizens, unlike Pakistan, that also targeted religious places. In response, armed forces displayed courage and restraint, and struck at various other locations in Pakistan, giving a fitting reply.


"The echo of India's military action was heard as far as Rawalpindi...," he said. "The world saw what happens to those who attempt terrorist attacks in India after the Uri attack. Our forces carried out a surgical strike inside Pakistan. After Pulwama, there was an airstrike on Balakot, and now...world has seen India conducting multiple strikes inside Pakistan."
