India's New Doctrine Against Terrorism

Prime Minister Narendra Modi outlined India's new anti-terrorism doctrine, emphasizing the success of Operation Sindoor as a new benchmark in the country's fight against terrorism. The operation highlighted India's superiority in modern warfare and the effectiveness of made-in-India weapons.

Key Tenets of Operation Sindoor

  • Responsive Action: India will respond decisively to terrorist attacks on its terms and will target the origins of terrorism.
  • No Tolerance for Nuclear Blackmail: India will strike terrorist hideouts even if they are shielded by nuclear threats.
  • No Differentiation: India will not distinguish between governments sponsoring terrorism and the terrorist masterminds.

Modi highlighted Pakistan's state-sponsored terrorism, referencing incidents where Pakistani army officers were involved in honoring slain terrorists, evidencing state-sponsored terrorism.

Military Operations and Diplomatic Efforts

The Prime Minister detailed military operations that targeted terror hideouts and training centers in Pakistan, achieving significant success by neutralizing over 100 terrorists, including masterminds.

  • Pakistan's response involved attacking civilian and military targets in India, which was thwarted by India's robust air defense systems.
  • As a result of India's military actions, Pakistan pleaded for de-escalation, leading to DGMO-level talks to ensure no further aggressive actions and troop reduction along the borders.

Policy on Engagements with Pakistan

Modi reiterated India's stance that talks with Pakistan would only focus on terrorism and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. He rejected any notion of mixing terrorism with trade or other diplomatic talks.

Impact and Future Strategy

The operation demonstrated the capabilities of indigenous defense systems, marking a pivotal shift towards self-reliance in defense technology. India's armed forces remain vigilant, prepared for any future provocations.

Modi's message was clear: India demands Pakistan dismantle its terror infrastructure for peace. He stressed that terrorism and dialogue cannot coexist, alongside water and blood, referencing the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty.

Conclusion

Concluding on a philosophical note, Modi linked India's strength to the peaceful teachings of Lord Buddha, underlining that peace must be backed by power to achieve a developed India, or ‘Viksit Bharat’.

In summary, the Operation Sindoor doctrine sets a new standard in India's counter-terrorism strategy, emphasizing uncompromising action, self-reliance in defense, and strict diplomatic principles regarding engagements with Pakistan.
