#WATCH | Jaipur, Rajasthan: At the press conference on the anniversary of Operation Sindoor, Vice Admiral AN Pramod says, "... By striking the terror hubs in the heart of Pakistan using long-range precision weapons, India effectively called the bluff on Pakistan's nuclear blackmail. The growing relevance of uncrewed and autonomous systems as seen in the recent conflicts, reinforces the need for accelerated integration into our operational constructs. Our endeavor therefore, remains focused on inducting these niche capabilities and constantly reviewing our concepts of operations to remain ahead of the adversary... The performance of indigenous ships such as the aircraft carrier Vikrant, Kolkata and Visakhapnam class destroyers validated the Indian Navy's investment in indigenous capability, blue water readiness and integrated war fighting, thus reaffirming Atmanirbharta as a critical enabler for operational success. If Operation Sindoor was proof of calibrated resolve, our next response will be about sustained overmatch. If challenged again, we will not merely respond, we'll shape the battle space from the outset..."

A year ago, our armed forces displayed unparalleled courage, precision and resolve during #OperationSindoor. They gave a fitting response to those who dared to attack innocent Indians at Pahalgam. The entire nation salutes our forces for their valour. Operation Sindoor reflected India’s firm response against terrorism and an unwavering commitment to safeguarding national security. It also highlighted the professionalism, preparedness and coordinated strength of our armed forces. At the same time, it showcased the growing jointness among our forces and underlined the strength that India’s quest for self-reliance in the defence sector has brought to our national security. Today, a year later, we remain as steadfast as ever in our resolve to defeat terrorism and destroy its enabling ecosystem.
