'Zameen, aasmaan, paatal, jahan bhi ho': Doval recalls PM Modi's Operation Sindoor order
The top security official was speaking in the upcoming Discovery docuseries “Declassified: Operation Sindoor” when he made the remarks.
National Security Advisory Ajit Doval has recalled PM Narendra Modi's directive to target individuals responsible for the Pahalgam terror attack, regardless of their location, in a forthcoming Discovery documentary series "Declassified: Operation Sindoor". Operation Sindoor was a series of strikes on terrorist hubs in Pakistan, carried out in response to the Pahalgam attack, which resulted in the deaths of 26 tourists, including one Nepali citizen.
The attack was claimed by the Resistance Force, a faction of the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba. Operation Sindoor aimed to send a message that the fight against terror will continue "until the last terrorist is eliminated". Doval recalled how the Prime Minister cut short his trip to Saudi Arabia upon hearing about the attack and ordered a meeting to gather facts.
Indian forces conducted precision strikes on multiple terror infrastructures in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, with Pakistan subsequently launching offensives against India. The military conflict between the two nuclear-armed neighbors lasted nearly 88 hours before reaching an understanding on May 10. Doval emphasized that India's generosity and tolerance should not be misconstrued as weakness and asserted that India can take risks and strike hard, irrespective of the consequences.
