Any misadventure from Pak to invite ‘unprecedented’ action, says Rajnath Singh
NEW DELHI: Just a day after Navy chief Admiral Dinesh K Tripathi disclosed that India was on the verge of striking Pakistan from sea during Op Sindoor, defence minister Rajnath Singh on Thursday said any “misadventure" from India's neighbour in the prevailing situation would invite “unprecedented and decisive” action.
Rajnath, speaking at a Sainik Samman Sammelan in Kerala, said that following the April 2025 Pahalgam attack, India had destroyed terrorist hideouts and infrastructure in Pakistan through Op Sindoor and brought the hostile neighbour to its knees in 22 minutes. “I would like to tell you the operation is not over yet. If such dirty actions are repeated by Pakistan, our armed forces will give a befitting reply which they will never forget.”
The minister said that under PM Modi, national security has been strengthened, and the government's attitude and mode of action have changed. “Be it the surgical strikes after the Uri terror attack, air strikes in response to the killing of Indian security personnel in Pulwama, or Operation Sindoor, we have struck a strong blow to terrorism," he said.
On Wednesday, Admiral Tripathi, during a naval investiture ceremony in Mumbai, said, “Op Sindoor demonstrated exemplary readiness and resolve of the Indian Navy, as our units undertook swift deployment and maintained a highly aggressive posture throughout the period. It is not a hidden fact anymore that we were just minutes away from striking Pakistan from sea when they requested a stoppage of kinetic actions.”

No doubt that India is capable and should defend itself with full force. But at this moment when world is already embroiled in war and violence and there seems no external threat at the moment what is the need for sabre rattling. Unnecessary military warnings are like shooting an arrow into the dark night. Moreover India being a large country, nuclear power with effective and efficient armed forces needs to portray it's strength with utmost seriousness, maturity and respectability. Rajnath singh frequent warnings erode our prestige and impression rather than enhancing it. Trump like behaviour doesn't fit our historical image of being a power with a humane face and values.Read allPost comment
