During a parliamentary debate on Operation Sindoor, Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that India's strong retaliation forced Pakistan to seek a ceasefire. He recounted how Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) pleaded with his Indian counterpart to stop the attacks, saying, "Bas karo, bahut maara hai," which translates to "Stop it, you have hit too hard".
Modi emphasized that the armed forces were given complete freedom during the operation. He lauded them for teaching "the masters of terrorism such a lesson that they are still losing their sleep over it". He also stated that India's air defense systems are now recognized worldwide for successfully repelling Pakistani attacks, destroying approximately 1,000 missiles and drones launched by Pakistan mid-air.
The Prime Minister refuted claims that the ceasefire between India and Pakistan was mediated by the United States. He stated that no world leader asked India to stop Operation Sindoor. Modi mentioned telling the US Vice President that India would respond with greater force if attacked by Pakistan.
Modi also criticized the opposition, accusing them of having a negative approach towards the armed forces and echoing Pakistani propaganda. He said the opposition was questioning the origin of terrorists from Pakistan and demanding proof. He further added that the entire country is amazed to see Congress giving a clean chit to Pakistan.
Operation Sindoor was launched in retaliation to the Pahalgam terror attack. Modi stated that terror masterminds are unable to sleep because of Operation Sindoor. He called the Parliament session a celebration of India's victory over Pakistan.
