New Delhi: India has struck where it hurts, even though Pakistan leaders and military officials continue to live in denial.
Having targeted 9 selected sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) through Operation Sindoor in the early hours of May 7, India now has to secure its own land as Pakistan will look to hit back in some form or the other.
After Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated the Defence forces for a successful operation at a Cabinet meet, he also briefed President Droupadi Murmu on details of Operation Sindoor.
In another significant development, Union Home Minister Amit Shah has called a high-level meeting with several border states on Wednesday afternoon.
Chief Ministers, DGPs and Chief Secretaries of Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Sikkim, West Bengal, LGs of Ladakh and J & K have been asked to be present at the meeting to review the security situation and guard against any possible incursions.
Two days ago, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) had already directed several states to conduct mock drills on May 7 to enhance civil defence preparedness.
It was obviously keeping in mind India’s impending strike at Pakistani terrorist camps and a possible retaliation from across the border.
