Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has asserted that Operation Sindoor was the biggest action taken against terrorism in India’s history. Speaking at an event in Dehradun today, he said the Pahalgam terror strike was not just an attack on Indian citizens but also an assault on the social unity of the country. The Defence Minister emphasized that terrorists in Pahalgam targeted victims based on their religion, but India responded not by considering religion, but by taking decisive action based on their deeds. Mr. Singh urged the international community to put strategic, diplomatic and economic pressure on Pakistan to deal with terrorism.

The Minister added that India is protecting its borders and creating a system which is making it strategically, economically and technically strong. He also said that Operation Sindoor is proof that the government has transformed India’s security apparatus by changing the attitude towards national security issues.
