With regards to the number of terrorist casualties in the air strikes, the Air Vice Marshal stated that it is premature to come to any conclusion. He though added that the IAF has achieved the result it wanted to achieve.
During the briefing, Major General Surinder Mahal said that Pakistan resorted to unprovoked ceasefire violations and targeted brigade, battalion headquarters but the immediate response by Indian Army foiled those efforts.
He added that mechanised forces have been placed on a standby and assured that the Indian Army is totally prepared for action.
Rear Admiral D S Gujral said that the Indian Navy is deployed in a high state of readiness to deter and defeat any misadventure by Pakistan.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.

The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
