India’s answer to terror now comes with missiles, drones and no warnings: PM Modi at Adampur

Adampur, May 13 (IANS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi, during his visit to the Air Force Station at Adampur on Tuesday, delivered a powerful address to the armed forces, praising their courage and reaffirming India's assertive stance on national security.

In the wake of Operation Sindoor, he said that India's response to terrorism has entered a new era -- precise, resolute, and unforgiving.

Calling the chant "Bharat Mata Ki Jai" more than just a slogan, the Prime Minister described it as a sacred oath for every soldier and citizen.

"When Indian soldiers chant it on the battlefield, it sends shivers down the enemy's spine," he said, adding that the phrase now echoes through every drone strike and missile launch that crushes enemy fortifications.

PM Modi hailed Operation Sindoor as a landmark moment -- a "trinity" of policy, intent, and decisive capability.

He stressed that it was not a routine military action but a bold demonstration of India's strength, precision, and technological edge.

"India is the land of Buddha and Guru Gobind Singh Ji," he said, invoking the legacy of courage and righteousness.

"Those who came in secrecy to harm India's daughters were crushed in their own hideouts," the Prime Minister declared. The operation, he confirmed, destroyed nine major terror hubs and eliminated more than 100 terrorists, sending a clear signal to the masterminds behind crossborder attacks.

"Provoking India now leads only to one consequence -- total destruction," the Prime Minister said.

He also added that the Pakistani Army, which had long sheltered terror groups, was now left humiliated and exposed.

PM Modi highlighted how Operation Sindoor was not only a tactical success but a symbol of India's military integration.
