Bhopal, May 31: Asserting that Bharat has sent a strong message that proxy wars waged through terrorism will no longer be tolerated, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday termed Operation Sindoor as the biggest and most successful anti-terror operation in the country’s history.
Speaking at the ‘Lokmata Devi Ahilyabai Mahila Sashaktikaran Maha Sammelan’ here PM Modi, reiterated that “Bharat’s message is clear that proxy war by terrorists will not work.”
PM Modi said, “Bharat is a land of culture and values, sees Sindoor as a symbol of women’s power. Today, that same Sindoor has become a symbol of our valour and resistance to terrorism. If you fire bullets, then rest assured that they will be answered with cannon balls.”
PM Modi described ‘Sindoor’ (vermillion) as a symbol of women power in the country’s tradition. “This Sindoor has become a symbol of bravery,” he said.
Pertinently, earlier this month, Indian armed forces carried out missile strikes on nine terror headquarters in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir under “Operation Sindoor.” The operation was conducted two weeks after the massacre of 26 civilians at Baisaran Valley in Pahalgam.
The Prime Minister said that in Pahalgam, terrorists not only shed the blood of Indians, but also attacked India’s culture. “They tried to divide our society and the biggest thing is that they challenged the women power of India,” he added.
“This challenge has sounded the death knell for terrorists and their handlers. Operation Sindoor is the biggest and most successful operation in the history of India against terrorists.
While the Pakistan army could not even imagine, our army destroyed the terrorist hideouts,” he said. (KNO)
