PM Narendra Modi, during a public address in Varanasi on Saturday, criticised the Opposition for downplaying the success of ‘Operation Sindoor’ and accused Congress and the Samajwadi Party (SP) of being more concerned about Pakistan’s situation than India’s security.
PM Modi said some political leaders were unable to accept India’s decisive action against terror camps, and instead of standing with the armed forces, chose to question the mission.
“Unfortunately, some people do not like the success of ‘Operation Sindoor’. Congress and its followers and friends are not able to digest the fact that India destroyed Pakistan’s terror camps. I would like to ask you all — do you feel proud of India’s strength? Do you feel pride in ‘Operation Sindoor’ and destroying the terrorist camps?” PM Modi stated, addressing a large gathering in his parliamentary constituency.
He further asserted, “Everyone knows that Pakistan is upset. But Congress and the Samajwadi Party cannot handle the pain that Pakistan is going through. The masters of terror are crying in Pakistan, and here, Congress and SP are crying, seeing the condition of terrorists.”
PM Modi also responded to remarks made by Congress MP Pariniti Shinde, who described Operation Sindoor as a ‘tamasha’.
“Congress is constantly insulting the valour of our forces. The party has called Operation Sindoor a ‘tamasha’. You tell me, can ‘Sindoor’ ever be a ‘tamasha’? How can someone say this shameful thing?” PM Modi questioned.
The Prime Minister invoked the symbolism of Lord Shiv, explaining that while some forms are for welfare, others represent the destruction of evil.
“When there is terror and injustice, Mahadev takes his ‘Rudra roop’. The world saw this form of India during Operation Sindoor. Anyone who attacks India will not be spared even in Pataal Lok,” PM Modi declared.
The Prime Minister reiterated that India would not hesitate to act again, especially with growing capabilities in defence manufacturing. He highlighted how domestically made equipment had played a key role in the operation.
“During ‘Operation Sindoor’, the world saw the power of ‘Made in India’ weapons — our drones, missiles, Air Defence Systems, especially BrahMos missiles. Pakistan is unable to sleep because of BrahMos. And I am proud to say that these missiles will now be manufactured in UP. In Lucknow, BrahMos production is starting. Big Defence companies are coming to the UP Defence Corridor. ‘Made in India’ weapons will soon become the backbone of our armed forces,” PM Modi noted.
He further emphasised, “If Pakistan dares another act, the missiles made in UP will finish the terror bases.”
Opening his speech with chants of ‘Om Namah Parvati Pataye, Har Har Mahadev’, PM Modi recalled the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people on 22 April. He said he had promised to avenge the victims.
“I had prayed to Baba Vishwanath to give strength to the victims’ families. I had promised my daughters that I would take revenge for their ‘sindoor’. Today, with Mahadev’s blessings, I have fulfilled that promise. I dedicate the success of ‘Operation Sindoor’ at the feet of Mahadev,” the Prime Minister concluded.
