00:00So if we go back to 2025, on 22nd April, we saw the Pahlkam terror attack, what really panned out.
00:08And right after that day, for a week, until the day Operation Sindhuur happened, number of high level meetings took
00:17place here in the national capital.
00:18For me, one of the very vivid memories is of April 29th. I was out of MHA, but there was
00:26this another very important meeting taking place at 7 LKM, wherein the Tri-Services chief were meeting the Prime Minister.
00:34And later that day, sir, there was this statement by the Prime Minister saying that he has given a free
00:39hand to the defense, all the three services chiefs, that whatever befitting reply they think is appropriate at this point,
00:48they can go ahead with that.
00:49But post that, we saw how Operation Sindhuur happened and how it demonstrated a coordinated effort by the Tri-Services
00:56chief in such a short, but yet a very intense conflict.
01:01What is the lesson that we take from this and how can we use this moving forward for future operations?
01:09Look, I think the key lesson, clearly, as you mentioned, is that, you know, the three services have to come
01:15together.
01:16And there has to be Tri-Service coordination for any operation of this nature.
01:22And so we saw that while much of the focus is on the airstrikes, there were also ground operations going
01:28on across the line of control.
01:31The Navy had, you know, sailed out and were poised for any operation that they need to sort of undertake.
01:38So, we saw it here.
