Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, speaking at the ANI National Security Summit 2.0, declared that India voluntarily stopped Operation Sindoor, which targeted terror camps in Pakistan, not due to a lack of capability but as a strategic decision. He emphasized India's preparedness for a prolonged conflict if necessary, asserting that the operation demonstrated the joint capabilities of the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force. Singh condemned Pakistan as the epicenter of international terrorism, highlighting the need to dismantle its operational, ideological, and political support for terrorism. He pointed out that while India has gained recognition for its advancements in Information Technology, Pakistan is viewed as a hub for terrorism. Singh also noted that during the conflict, India faced nuclear threats but remained resolute in its national interests. The operation itself involved precision strikes on nine terror targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir, resulting in significant casualties among terrorist groups, including Jaish-e-Mohammed. The operation led to four days of cross-border conflict, ultimately resulting in a ceasefire agreement on May 10.
