Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi on Monday confirmed that Operation Sindoor continues and remains an active counter-terror mission, signalling India’s sustained and firm response against cross-border terrorism. Speaking during a media interaction, the Army Chief revealed that multiple terror camps were struck deep inside hostile territory after a decisive call taken at the highest level following the Pahalgam terror attack, reiterating that Operation Sindoor continues.
Operation Sindoor Targets Terror Camps
General Dwivedi said Operation Sindoor reset India’s strategic assumptions by dismantling entrenched terror infrastructure and striking at the operational core of terror networks. He revealed that the Indian Army successfully destroyed seven out of nine identified targets, including at least eight major terror camps. According to him, the strikes punctured the long-standing nuclear rhetoric often used to deter strong responses, clearly establishing that Operation Sindoor continues with full operational freedom.
Tri-Services Coordination Central to Operation Sindoor
Calling the mission a textbook example of tri-services synergy, the Army Chief highlighted seamless coordination between the Army, Navy and Air Force. He said commanders were given full freedom to act and respond based on evolving situations. General Dwivedi warned that any misadventure by the adversary would be met with an effective response, underlining why Operation Sindoor continues as both a deterrent and a defensive operation. Situation on Western Front Under Control
The Army Chief stated that since May 10, the security situation along the Western Front and in Jammu and Kashmir has remained sensitive but firmly under control. He said Indian forces remain alert while ensuring stability for civilians. Last year, 31 terrorists were eliminated, with nearly 65 per cent being of Pakistani origin, reflecting continued cross-border involvement even as Operation Sindoor continues.
Preparedness Key Amid Global Conflict Rise
General Dwivedi also pointed to a sharp rise in armed conflicts worldwide last year, stressing that preparedness is the deciding factor for national security. He said nations that remain ready, resilient and responsive will prevail, adding that India’s approach reflects these principles as Operation Sindoor continues.
