Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday (31 May) said that the Operation Sindoor is India's largest and most successful counter-terrorism operation in the country's history.

Addressing the Lokmata Devi Ahilyabai Mahila Sashaktikaran Mahasammelan in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh today (31 May), PM Modi said that Sindoor has now become a symbol of India's valour.

Referring to the terror attack in J&K's Pahalgam, he stated that the terrorists not only shed the blood of Indians but also struck at the nation’s cultural ethos and attempted to divide society.

He said that they challenged India's Nari Shakti and this challenge proved fatal for the terrorists and their handlers.

"Operation Sindoor is India's largest and most successful counter-terrorism operation in history”, PM Modi said, highlighting that at
locations where Pakistan’s forces never anticipated action, Indian armed
forces dismantled terrorist bases.

He remarked that Operation Sindoor has sent a clear message that proxy wars through terrorism will not be tolerated.

PM Modi stressed that India will not only eliminate threats within
its territory but will also ensure a heavy price is paid by those
supporting terrorists.

“Every Indian now echoes the same sentiment, if you fire bullets, you will face artillery shells," he added.

PM Modi also said that Operation Sindoor stands as a testament to the strength and valor of India’s women power.

He highlighted the crucial role played by the Border Security Force (BSF) in this operation, noting that from Jammu to Punjab, Rajasthan, and Gujarat, a significant number of BSF women personnel were at the frontlines.

He commended their resolute response to cross-border firing and their active participation in command and control centers, as well as in eliminating enemy positions.
