PM Modi warns Operation Sindoor ongoing; any terror attack will get karara jawab

Prime Minister Narendra Modi reaffirmed that Operation Sindoor, India's military campaign against terrorism, is still ongoing and warned that any terror attack will be met with a karara jawab (decisive response). Speaking on May 30, 2025, Modi emphasized that India’s armed forces alone will decide the timing, method, and conditions of retaliation.

He highlighted the success of Operation Sindoor, which involved deep incursions into Pakistan territory, destroying terrorist hideouts and showcasing the power of indigenous weapons developed under the Make in India initiative. Modi stated, "Our forces entered deep into Pakistan and destroyed terrorist hideouts. The Indian Army’s valour forced the Pakistani military to come on its knees and plead for a ceasefire."

The Prime Minister also outlined a new strategic doctrine with three key principles: India will respond firmly to every terror attack, will not be intimidated by nuclear threats, and will treat both terror masterminds and their supporting governments with equal resolve. He warned Pakistan directly, saying, "Pakistan's game of State and non-state actors is not going to work anymore."

Modi further stressed the importance of self-reliance in defense manufacturing, noting that weapons like the BrahMos missile caused significant damage during the operation and gave the enemy sleepless nights. He linked this to national pride and economic growth, highlighting Kanpur’s role in defense production.

The Prime Minister’s remarks come in the wake of the May 7 Pahalgam terror attack, which triggered Operation Sindoor. Modi paid tribute to victims like Shubham Dwivedi and reiterated India’s commitment to counter terrorism decisively.

Key quotes:
"India’s principle in the fight against terror is to give a befitting reply to every terror attack. Its time, method and conditions will be decided by our forces themselves."
"To our enemy, who was pleading during Operation Sindoor, I reiterate: the operation is not over yet."
"India will no longer be bullied by nuclear threats from its neighbours."

Stats and facts:
- Operation Sindoor launched May 7, 2025, targeting terror bases in Pakistan and PoK.

This assertive stance reflects India’s evolving counter-terrorism strategy amid ongoing tensions with Pakistan, signaling a shift from diplomatic protests to decisive military action.
