AHMEDABAD: Union home minister Amit Shah said on Saturday that India’s military response to Pahalgam terror attack struck deep into Pak territory and left the neighbouring country ‘afraid’.
“For the first time since Independence, our armed forces destroyed terror camps 100km inside Pakistan. Pak thought it would threaten us with atom bombs, & we would be scared. But our armed forces gave them a befitting reply. Our three armed forces responded to bricks with stones,” Shah, who is on a two-day visit to Gujarat, said in Gandhinagar district’s Kolavada village.
Shah said our armed forces eliminated nearly 100 terrorists, destroyed the headquarters of terror outfits, and also destroyed 15 military air bases, which eventually reduced the Pakistan air force’s ability to hit back. He said PM Narendra Modi himself gave the name ‘ Operation Sindoor ’ in honour of the country’s women.
He said that before Modi became PM, terrorist attacks used to take place at regular intervals for years. “Terrorists backed by Pakistan routinely killed our soldiers, bombed our cities, and plotted with impunity. No strong response was ever given,” Shah said.
“During the tenure of PM Modi, India saw 3 terror attacks backed by Pak — Uri, Pulwama, and Pahalgam. In all three instances, India gave a befitting reply. After Uri, we carried out a surgical strike , after Pulwama, we warned them with an air strike, and after Pahalgam, the terror headquarters were razed to the ground,” said Shah. As per Shah, Army also destroyed 9 camps which were used to train terrorists and to send them into India.
