‘Op Sindoor’ not over, any terror attack will invite heavy price; Terrorism & mass murders core operations of Pak Army”
Alipurduar/New Delhi: Terming April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, which left 26 civilians dead, as assault on the soul of humanity, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said that terrorists intended to divide the people of the country, but India stood united and fought with full determination to foil their nefarious designs.
Speaking at public rally in Alipurduar, West Bengal PM Modi, said “The attack was an attempt to tear apart India’s social fabric and unity. In Pahalgam, terrorists did not just target India, they attacked the soul of humanity and brotherhood. They tried to divide Indians.”
“They had the audacity to wipe away the Sindoor of our sisters, but our armed forces showed them the strength of that Sindoor,” he added.
Referring to the pain and outrage the attack triggered across the country, the Prime Minister said that West Bengal, too, felt deep anger and grief. “I could see the anger in Bengal. I could feel it. I am here to say, on behalf of 140 crore Indians, that Operation Sindoor is not yet over,” he said.
PM Modi said India had responded to Pakistan and the terrorists with a strong and direct answer. “We have given a decisive response” he said. “We didn’t just retaliate, we entered their territory and destroyed terror infrastructure they never thought could be touched.”
He said that Pakistan’s frustration was evident and that India had already struck it three times on its own soil. While the Prime Minister did not name specific missions, his remarks were widely interpreted as a reference to the 2016 surgical strikes, the 2019 Balakot airstrikes, and the recent cross-border operations that were a part of Operation Sindoor.
“Our army went into their home and struck. We have destroyed their airbases, their terror camps, and sent a message they will never forget,” PM Modi said.
He added that India’s approach toward terrorism has fundamentally changed, and any attack would now be met with decisive retaliation.
“Terrorism and mass murder have become the core operations of Pakistan’s army. But whenever there is a war, they are defeated,” he said. “We have made it clear, there is no tolerance for terrorism anymore.”
He also described how the world is watching India’s unity grow stronger in the face of such attacks. “They tried to break us, but today the world sees India standing together, stronger than before,” he said.
The PM said Operation Sindoor will continue and that India’s fight against terrorism is not just a military action but a decision taken by the whole country. “This is not merely a military action; it reflects the nation’s collective resolve,” he said.
He also said that India is committed to its security and warned that anyone who tries to harm the country will face the consequences. “Any future act of terrorism will be met with a severe and uncompromising response,” he said
