Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday addressed the Parliament on Operation Sindoor and said that the Pakistani airbases hit by India were still in the ICU.
PM Modi, while speaking on Operation Sindoor in Lok Sabha, said, “The world saw the strength of self-reliant India during Operation Sindoor. Drones and missiles made in India exposed the capabilities of Pakistani arms and ammunition.”
PM Modi further said that the Indian armed forces taught them such a lesson that the `masters of terrorism` are still losing their sleep over it.
He said, “We destroyed terror sites deep inside Pakistan within 22 minutes to avenge Pahalgam terror attack.”
PM Modi asserted that the Indian armed forces taught such a lesson to those behind the Pahalgam attack that the “masters of terrorism” are still having sleepless nights.
Responding to the two-day debate on Pahalgam and Operation Sindoor in the Lok Sabha, the prime minister said the attack was aimed at instigating riots in India, and the country`s unity has foiled the attempt.
“I stand here to make a case for India, and to show a mirror to those who do not understand this. I had said that we will teach the terrorists and their masters a befitting lesson which will be beyond their imagination.
“We have complete trust in the capabilities of our armed forces and they were given a free hand to respond,” he said.
PM Modi noted that Pakistan had some inkling of Indian action and had started issuing nuclear threats, but could do nothing when terror targets were hit.
“It (Pahalgam attack) was a conspiracy to instigate riots in India and the country`s unity foiled that attempt. When I speak of this Parliament session being a Vijayotsav, it is of destroying the headquarters of terror,” he said, reported the PTI.
PM Modi said that the US VP was told that if Pakistan attacks India, our attack would be much bigger as we will respond to bullets with cannons.
He said that India`s air defence systems are now being talked about across the world for the way they repulsed Pakistan attacks.
