Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh) [India], May 13 (ANI): Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership during Operation Sindoor, saying the Army's "tremendous resistance over the last five days" reflected India's strong stance against terrorism.
"The way PM Modi has presented his entire stand in front of the country, we have seen India in the changing times; we have seen India grow from the number 11 economy to the number 5 economy," CM Yadav said.
"We have seen Article 370 being removed from the country, PM Modi has announced his new policy against terrorism, the world is watching India in the changing times and we all have seen the tremendous resistance that the Army has shown in the last 5 days under the leadership of PM Modi," he added.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the nation via videoconference on Monday.
In his address, PM Modi remarked that the nation has witnessed both India's strength and restraint in recent days. He extended his salute to the country's formidable armed forces, intelligence agencies, and scientists on behalf of every Indian citizen.
The Prime Minister highlighted the unwavering courage displayed by India's brave soldiers in achieving the objectives of Operation Sindoor, acknowledging their valor, resilience, and indomitable spirit. He dedicated this unparalleled bravery to every mother, sister, and daughter of the nation.
Condemning strongly the barbaric terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22, stating that it shocked both the nation and the world, Shri Modi described the act as a gruesome display of terror, where innocent civilians enjoying their holidays were brutally killed after being questioned about their faith--right in front of their families and children.
He stressed that this was not just an act of cruelty but also a vile attempt to fracture the nation's harmony. Expressing his deep personal anguish over the attack, he highlighted how the entire nation--every citizen, every community, every section of society, and every political party--stood united in demanding strong action against terrorism.
He further asserted that the government had given the armed forces full freedom to eliminate the terrorists. He warned all terrorist organizations, declaring that they now fully understand the consequences of attempting to harm the dignity of the nation's women.
"Operation Sindoor is not just a name but a reflection of the emotions of millions of Indians", emphasised the Prime Minister, describing it as an unwavering pledge to justice, one that the world witnessed being fulfilled on May 6-7.
Operation Sindoor was launched in response to the Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed 26 lives, including a Nepali citizen. (ANI)
