Prime Minister Narendra Modi chaired a Cabinet Committee on Security meeting, his first after the ceasefire with Pakistan on May 10, at his residence in the national capital.
The CCS meeting was followed by a Cabinet meeting.
The meetings are expected to discuss the aftermath of the ‘Operation Sindoor’, besides formulating a strategic response to Pakistan.
India had launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 to avenge the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 civilians. The Indian armed forces, with their precision airstrikes, took down over 100 terrorists, their headquarters, and their training camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
In the run-up to India’s counter-strike, PM Modi had chaired a series of key meetings — two CCS meetings within a week — besides high-level security meetings with CDS General Anil Chauhan, Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi, Air Force Chief Air Chief Marshal AP Singh, and Naval Chief Admiral Dinesh K Tripathi.
Yesterday, the Prime Minister visited the Adampur airbase and met the air warriors. He also interacted with them and lauded them for their exemplary show of courage and skill in the success of Operation Sindoor.
PM Modi also addressed them, hailing their valour and warning Pakistan against any future misadventure, while also making it clear that the Operation Sindoor is merely on a pause. He also called out Pakistan’s nuclear bluff and said that such blackmail would no longer work with India.
“When our forces blow away the threat of Nuclear blackmail, then only one thing resonates from India — ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’. You have made every Indian proud; you have created history. I am here early morning to have your ‘darshan’. When the feet of heroes touch the ground, the ground becomes blessed. When we get the opportunity to have darshan of these heroes, our lives get blessed, and hence I am here today,” he said.
