Speaking virtually at an event in Lucknow to inaugurate a BrahMos production unit, Mr. Singh said Operation Sindoor was not just a military action, but a symbol of India's political, social and strategic will to fight terrorism.
It was a demonstration of India's strong will against terrorism, he said on the operation.
Operation Sindoor was launched on early May 7 to destroy seven terror infrastructures in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied-Kashmir in retaliation to the Pahalgam terror attack. All subsequent retaliations to Pakistani offensives were carried out under Operation Sindoor.
India and Pakistan on Saturday announced reaching an understanding to stop all firings and military actions on land, air and sea, with immediate effect.
Through Operation Sindoor, the Indian military punished those terrorists who wiped off vermilion of many families, he added.
