New Delhi: The central government has called an all-party meeting to discuss ‘Operation Sindoor,’ a military operation conducted by Indian armed forces against terror targets in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and inside Pakistan. The meeting, held in the national capital, aims to inform opposition leaders about the details of the operation, which included precision strikes on key terror hubs such as Lashkar-e-Taiba’s headquarters in Muridke and major training camps in Bahawalpur.
The meeting was reportedly organized at the direction of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has emphasized the importance of keeping all political parties informed about national security matters. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju stated that the government believes in transparency and wants to ensure unity among all parties when it comes to India’s defense actions. He added that the armed forces have successfully countered terrorism, and the government wants the opposition to be fully aware of the operation’s objectives and outcomes.
The briefing is expected to be led by Defense Minister Rajnath Singh and Home Minister Amit Shah. They will provide details about the targets hit, the strategic impact of the operation, and India’s preparedness in case Pakistan attempts any retaliatory actions. The government has clarified that the strikes were a direct response to the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, where 26 civilians, including a Nepali national, were killed. Officials have stressed that the operation was carefully planned to avoid escalation and only focused on terror infrastructure, not Pakistani military installations.
However, before the meeting, some Congress leaders questioned why Prime Minister Modi was not present, arguing that his attendance would have demonstrated national unity. The BJP dismissed these concerns, stating that the Prime Minister has already shown strong leadership by authorizing the strikes and that the briefing by senior ministers was sufficient.
Earlier, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri had addressed the nation, explaining that the military action was a measured response to Pakistan-sponsored terrorism. The government reiterated that India remains committed to peace but will not hesitate to takGe decisive action against threats to national security.
The all-party meeting highlights the government’s effort to maintain political consensus on critical defense matters while reassuring the public of India’s strong stance against terrorism.
