New Delhi, July 21: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said the world witnessed India’s military strength during Operation Sindoor following the April 22 attack in Pahalgam that left 26 people dead, most of them tourists.
Speaking to media ahead of the Parliament Monsoon Session, PM Modi said the Indian Army achieved its target under Operation Sindoor, in which the houses of those behind terrorism were demolished within 22 minutes.
He added that this operation has drawn global attention to India’s military capability and the strength of its domestic defence sector.
“When the Parliament speaks in one voice during this session, it will support military morale, encourage citizens, and contribute to progress in defence research, innovation, and manufacturing,” he added.
He also said that security forces are making steady progress in eliminating Maoists and Naxalites and that several previously affected districts are now free from such activities, and the Constitution is prevailing over violence.
He urged MPs across parties to ensure smooth functioning of the house and that interests may vary, but national interest must remain the shared priority. (KNO)
