No safe haven for terrorists, enemies of India after Operation Sindoor, says PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said Operation Sindoor sent a powerful message about how India would act when its sovereignty was threatened, asserting that the military operation had instilled a renewed sense of national pride and confidence.

Speaking at an event celebrating the birth anniversary of Chola emperor Rajendra Chola I, Modi said that the operation demonstrated there were no safe havens for those who sought to harm India.

”Operation Sindoor proved that for enemies of India, for terrorists, there is no safe haven. When I came here from the helipad, the 3-4 km distance suddenly became a roadshow, and everyone was praising Op Sindoor.” ”Operation sindoor has created a new awakening, a new self-confidence across the country. The world has to realise India’s strength,” the PM asserted.

Modi further said the names of emperors Raja Raja Chola, and his son Rajendra Chola-I are synonymous with India’s identity and pride and announced that grand statues would be built for them in Tamil Nadu. These statues will be ”modern pillars of our historic awakening,” he added.
