India Took Out Terror Targets on Camera to Silence Doubts': PM Modi on Operation Sindoor

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, speaking at a rally in Gandhinagar on Tuesday, revealed that nine terrorist hideouts in Pakistan were destroyed in just 22 minutes during India's airstrikes under Operation Sindoor. He described the strikes as a bold and decisive response to terrorism, adding that the entire operation was recorded on camera to silence any future demands for proof.

“This is the land of the brave,” Modi declared. “What we once called a proxy war can no longer be seen that way. After what happened post-May 6, it’s clear this isn’t just a shadow conflict.” He pointed to the funerals of terrorists killed in the strikes, which he said were held with full state honours in Pakistan — their coffins draped in national flags and saluted by the Pakistani military.

“This clearly shows that terrorism is no longer just a proxy war — it’s part of a well-planned, deliberate military strategy,” Modi said. “We don’t seek conflict with anyone. We want peace. We want progress, so we can contribute to the welfare of the world. But if war is imposed on us, our response will be equally decisive.”

Before the rally, the Prime Minister led a massive roadshow through Gandhinagar, with thousands lining the route from Raj Bhavan to Mahatma Mandir, waving the national flag and cheering. It marked his fourth roadshow in Gujarat during his two-day visit — and his first trip back to his home state since Operation Sindoor, launched in response to the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam.

On Monday, Modi had already led roadshows in Vadodara, Bhuj, and Ahmedabad, drawing large, enthusiastic crowds throughout.
