The New Indian Express Kottayam
|May 22, 2025
THE ENTIRE discourse on Operation Sindoor in the country, including the media, missed out its key concept of non-contact warfare, said S Gurumurthy, chairman of Vivekananda International Foundation, a strategic think tank.
The transformation of the defence infrastructure to the non-contact war model under Prime Minister Narendra Modi is to be credited for the success of Operation Sindoor, he said, while delivering a talk on "Operation Sindoor: Paradigm shift from candle light to BrahMos" at the Raj Bhavan on Wednesday.
The non-contact warfare turned out to be advantageous for India as it did not require ground forces, he said, adding that the Pakistan Defence website in 2020 had described this warfare.
