In 1st Mann Ki Baat post Op Sindoor, PM Modi shows images of destroyed terrorist camps

PM Modi said Operation Sindoor was a turning point in global fight against terror.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in the 122nd episode of monthly radio show Mann Ki Baat, showed images of terror camps that were destroyed by the Indian armed forces in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) under Operation Sindoor.

Operation Sindoor was launched on May 7 in retaliation to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, on April 22 which killed 26 civilians. In the overnight attack, the Indian armed forces carried out missile strikes on four terrorist camps in Pakistan and five in PoK.

Praising the "extraordinary" precision with which Indian armed forces attacked the terrorist infrastructure across the border, PM Modi showed the sites that were destroyed in PoK - the Gulpur and Abbas camps in Kotli and the Barnala camp in Bhimber.

While the Gulpur camp was the base for Lashkar terrorists operating in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri and Poonch, the Abbas camp was known as the nerve centre for the training of suicide bombers of the LeT. Barnala camp was used for providing training to terrorists in weapon handling, IED making and jungle survival techniques.

PM Modi said, "The precision and accuracy with which our forces destroyed the terrorist hideouts across the border is extraordinary. Operation Sindoor is not just a military mission; it is a picture of our resolve, courage and a transforming India and this picture has infused the whole country with a sense of patriotism and has painted it in the hues of the tricolour."

He said the Operation Sindoor has "infused new confidence and energy" into the global fight against terrorism. He credited India's home-grown defence capabilities for the mission's success, following the spirit of 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat'.

"This was the ultimate bravery of our soldiers, backed by the power of weapons, equipment, and technology made in India," the Prime Minister said.

The strikes by Indian armed forces successfully destroyed multiple camps of terror groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and Hizbul Mujahideen.
