Op Sindoor a defining moment in counter-terror strategy: Prez
Hindustan Times Thane
|November 28, 2025
President Droupadi Murmu on Thursday described the recent success of Operation Sindoor as a defining moment in India's counter-terror and deterrence strategy, saying the country acted firmly, yet responsibly.
"The world took note not only of India's military capability but of India's moral clarity to act firmly, yet responsibly in the pursuit of peace," she said in her special address at the Chanakya Defence Dialogue 2025.
Operation Sindoor marked New Delhi's direct military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 people were killed. India launched the operation in the early hours of May 7 and struck terror and military installations in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) before the May 10 ceasefire.
The armed forces, she said, have exemplified professionalism and patriotism in guarding the sovereignty of India. "During every security challenge, whether conventional, counterinsurgency or humanitarian, our forces have displayed remarkable adaptability and resolve."
