“Pakistan said, ‘Bahut maara, ab jyada maar jhelne ki takat nahi hai’. They asked us to stop the war,” PM Modi said, adding that Pakistan’s Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) conveyed the message directly to his Indian counterpart. “Bas karo, bahut maara hai (please stop the attack, you have hit too hard),” the Prime Minister quoted the DGMO as saying.
He added that India’s military had communicated shortly after the operation that their objectives were fully met. “Just in a few minutes after our Operation, our military told the Pakistan military that we had this aim and we have achieved it, to know what they were thinking. We achieved our target 100 per cent,” Modi said.
PM Modi Operation Sindoor speech: ‘Full Freedom for Armed Forces’
In a pointed response to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s earlier criticism that the armed forces lacked freedom of operation during Operation Sindoor, PM Modi underlined that the military was given a free hand. “On the night of May 6-7, we conducted an operation the way we wanted, and Pakistan couldn’t do anything,” he said, noting that Indian forces responded to the April 22 attack within 22 minutes.

Outlining the government’s strategic stance going forward, the Prime Minister declared: “Operation Sindoor makes it clear that India has decided on three points. 1) If there is a terrorist attack on India, we will respond in our own method, on our conditions and on our time. 2) No nuclear blackmail would work now. 3) We will not see terrorist-supporting governments and terror masterminds as two separate entities.”
PM Modi also criticized the Congress party for allegedly politicizing national security. “We had the support of the world but, sadly, not from the Congress. India got support of the entire world… no world leader asked India to stop… but it is unfortunate the Congress did not support the valour of our soldiers,” he said. The Prime Minister further accused the Opposition of “looking for politics in the death of the innocents in the Pahalgam attack.
