Oct 2: The Indian military successfully achieved all the objectives of Operation Sindoor but its fight against cross-border terrorism will continue, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said on Thursday.<\/p>\n
Singh said Pakistan made an unsuccessful attempt to penetrate India\u2019s defence system during Operation Sindoor but the Indian military \u201cexposed\u201d the Pakistani air defence apparatus and sent a message to the world that it can inflict heavy losses on the adversary.<\/p>\n
The defence minister was addressing a group of soldiers at a military base in Gujarat\u2019s Bhuj ahead of performing a \u2018shastra puja\u2019 (worship of weapons) on the occasion of Dussehra.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuring Operation Sindoor, Pakistan made an unsuccessful attempt to penetrate India\u2019s defence system from Leh to Sir Creek,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cHowever, in its retaliatory action, Indian forces completely exposed the Pakistani air defence system and sent a message to the world that Indian forces can inflict heavy losses on Pakistan whenever and wherever they wish,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Singh said India displayed restraint because its military action was against terrorism.<\/p>\n
\u201cEscalating it and starting a war was not the objective of Operation Sindoor. I am happy that Indian forces have successfully achieved all the military objectives of Operation Sindoor. But our fight against terrorism continues,\u201d he said. (Agencies)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
