[Watch] Here’s Rajnath Singh’s Big Warning To Pak Amid Build-Up Near Sir Creek

Bhuj: Defence minister Rajnath Singh on Thursday issued a stern warning to Pakistan over its recent military build-up near the Sir Creek region. Speaking at a public event on the occasion of ‘Shashtra Puja’, he said any misadventure would result in a response so robust that it could “change both history and geography”.

Singh accused Islamabad of intentionally raking up the long-standing border dispute in the area.

“Even after 78 years of independence, a dispute over the border in the Sir Creek area is being stirred up. India has made several attempts to resolve it through dialogue, but there is a flaw in Pakistan’s intentions; its intentions are not clear. The way in which the Pakistan army has recently expanded its military infrastructure in areas adjacent to Sir Creek reveals its intentions. The Indian Army and BSF are jointly and vigilantly protecting the borders of India. If any misadventure is attempted from the Pakistan side in the Sir Creek area, it will receive such a decisive response that both history and geography will change,” Singh said.

This was in response to the recent expansion of Pakistani military infrastructure in areas adjoining Sir Creek. This 96-km marshy strip in the Rann of Kutch is a strategic and sensitive zone along the Gujarat coastline.

He further invoked the 1965 India-Pakistan war. “In the 1965 war, the Indian Army had demonstrated the capability to reach Lahore. Today in 2025, Pakistan should remember that one route to Karachi passes through the creek,” he added.

Rajnath Singh on Operation Sindoor

While addressing soldiers in Gujarat’s Bhuj, Singh said India’s fight against cross-border terrorism would no\t stop. Singh said Pakistan made an unsuccessful attempt to penetrate India’s defence system during Operation Sindoor. But the Indian military “exposed” the Pakistani air defence apparatus. According to him, it had sent a message to the world that it could inflict heavy losses on the adversary.
