Operation Sindoor News, India-Pakistan Conflict Highlights: In a strong message against state-sponsored terror, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday warned Pakistan that “nuclear blackmail” will not deter India in taking its fight against terrorism to terror hubs across the border.
In a short address to the Nation, Modi said Operation Sindoor marks a “new normal” in India’s fight against terrorism which will breach boundaries and strike at the root of state-sponsored terrorism in Pakistan.
The Prime Minister asserted that the success of India’s military strike forced Pakistan to appeal for a truce. He said India agreed to a truce because its objective of destroying terror camps and exposing the vulnerability of Pakistan’s counter-offensive had already succeeded.
While US President Donald Trump has again claimed that it was him who intervened and halted the hostilities, PM Modi said India suspended military action on an appeal by Pakistan.
Modi also made it clear that military action has only been paused on Pakistan’s promise that they would not undertake any more missions against India. He also said India’s future action will depend on how Pakistan acts in the future.
“Bharat’s message is clear – terror and talks do not go together. Terror and trade do not go together. Water and blood do not flow together. I would tell the global community – it is our strategy that if we talk to Pakistan, we will talk about terrorism. If there is dialogue with Pakistan, it will be about PoK,” he said.
