Speaking at the gathering, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “Operation Sindoor was not merely a military operation—it was a testament to India’s values and emotions.” Recalling the horror of terrorists killing a father in front of his children, he said, “They had no idea what consequences their brutality would trigger. Even today, those images stir deep anger across the nation. When terrorism challenged 140 crore Indians, I fulfilled my duty as the Prime Minister.”

He added, “I gave full freedom to our armed forces, and they carried out an unprecedented operation—nine major terror hubs across the border were identified and destroyed in just 22 minutes. When Pakistan's military tried to retaliate, they were decisively crushed.” Saluting the courage of India’s soldiers, Modi said, “From the sacred soil of Dahod, I bow to the valor and dedication of our armed forces.” Speaking to the gathering, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “The country born after partition has remained focused on hostility and harming India. But India is walking a different path—our mission is to eradicate poverty, strengthen the economy, and pursue development.”
