00:00Armed terrorists opened fire on innocent tourists in the scenic Baisaran valley in Pehalgaam,
00:19killing 26 people, including one Nepali national and several women and elderly.
00:26Among the dead, 25 were men, leaving behind grieving wives, children, and shattered families.
00:34In a special press briefing, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri slammed Pakistan for not taking any action to dismantle the terror infrastructure on its soil.
00:45He said, and I'm quoting him,
00:47Despite a fortnight having passed, there has been no demonstrable step from Pakistan against terrorist infrastructure in its area.
00:58Now, two weeks later, India launched a daring cross-border operation.
01:03At this time, the mission carried a name with deep meaning, Operation Sindhoor.
01:18As per reports, Prime Minister Narendra Modi personally chose this codename,
01:23drawing from the sindhoor, the vermilion, worn by married Hindu women,
01:29a symbol of marital bond and the pain of widowhood.
01:42In high-level meetings, PM Modi reportedly said that the terrorists had deliberately targeted men,
01:49leaving behind widowed women and broken homes.
01:53The name Sindhoor was a deliberate invocation of grief, memory, and national resolve.
02:07The operation itself was historic.
02:10The Army, Navy, and Air Force joined forces in a coordinated assault.
02:15Nine terror camps linked to Jaish-e-Mohamed, Lakshar-e-Taiba, and Hezbo'l-Muzahiddeen were struck with surgical precision.
02:24Four, deep inside Pakistan, and five, in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
02:29India's strikes were described as focused and measured, avoiding escalation, but sending a clear message.
02:37Those who orchestrate terror will face justice.
02:41Operation Sindhoor is more than a military action.
02:44It's a statement that India will not forgive the pain of its widows and will not let terror go unanswered.
