|January 01, 2026
Defence minister Rajnath Singh on Wednesday said that Operation Sindoor was guided by Lord Ram's ideals, further noting that India’s aim in the military action was to “teach terrorists a lesson”.
Addressing a gathering after hoisting the saffron flag atop the Maa Annapurna temple in Ayodhya’s Ram Temple complex on the second anniversary of the Pran Pratishtha, Singh described the Ram Janmabhoomi movement as a “grand narrative”.
“As Lord Ram has taught us not to abandon righteousness even in war, our army also conducted a limited, controlled, and purposeful operation. ” he said.
