The PM said duplicity on terrorism stands exposed after a Jaish member's admissions on Operation Sindoor.
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi reiterated this week that India is not afraid of nuclear threats, as he praised the success of 'Operation Sindoor' that was carried out in response to the Pahalgam terror attack.
Addressing a gathering in Madhya Pradesh's Dhar, the PM said that terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed's acknowledgment of the losses during Operation Sindoor on its terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir only "exposed" Islamabad's role in sponsoring terrorism against New Delhi.
"This is new India. It is not scared of anyone. The Indian forces can enter houses to bring down enemies. New India is not afraid of nuclear threats," he said, in an apparent reference to Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir's earlier warning of a nuclear war and threat to take down "half the world" if Islamabad faced an existential threat in a future war with India.
"We obliterated terror launch pads during Operation Sindoor. The Jaish terrorists exposed Pakistan," he added.
The PM's comments came hours after a high-ranking Jaish commander, Masood Ilyas Kashmiri, said the outfit chief Maulana Masood Azhar's family was "torn apart by Indian forces in Bahawalpur" during Operation Sindoor. Kashmiri directly implicated Masood Azhar in planning and executing attacks in Delhi and Mumbai, shredding Pakistan’s repeated denials of sheltering terror groups on its soil.
