 "Operation Sindoor exposed Pakistan, told the world it sponsors terrorism: Amit Shah in Parl")
Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday said that terrorism in Pakistan is state-sponsored.
Speaking in the Lok Sabha in the debate on Operation Sindoor, Shah said that Pakistan joined terrorists in the war on India and targeted Indian civilian sites, but India never targeted any civilian sites in Pakistan.
In response to the attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam in which terrorists killed 26 people, India launched Operation Sindoor on the intervening night of May 6 and 7 and struck nine terrorist sites in Pakistan and Pakistan Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (POJK). The next day, Pakistan responded by attacking India’s military and civilian sites. In the four-day conflict, India struck a host of Pakistani military sites, including airbases and air defence systems, that forced Pakistan to request a ceasefire on May 10. India granted the request.
Shah said that Operation Sindoor had exposed Pakistan as a state-sponsor of terrorism to the world.

Shah further said that evidence showed that terrorists who carried out the Pulwama attack, including those killed in an operation on Monday, were from Pakistan.
“Chocolates found on dead terrorists are made in Pakistan. We have proof that all three are Pakistanis. We have their voter ID numbers, and the rifles and cartridges used were made in Pakistan,” Shah said in the parliament.
Shah went on to list the Pakistani airbases that India struck: Noor Khan, Murid, Sargodha, Rafiki, Rahim Yar Khan, Jacobabad, Sukkur, and Bholari. He further said that air defence sites at Sukkur, Lahore, Arifwala, Chunain, and Jacobabad were also struck.
