NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his fiery address in Lok Sabha shared new details about Operation Sindoor . The PM said that US Vice President JD Vance had called him on May 9, to inform him about an impending 'huge' strike by Pakistan.
"On the night of 9th May, the Vice President of America tried to talk to me. He tried for an hour, but I was in a meeting with my army, so I could not pick up his call. Later, I called him back. The Vice President of America told me on the phone that Pakistan is going to launch a big attack. My answer was that if Pakistan has this intention, it will cost them a lot. If Pakistan attacks, we will respond by launching a big attack. This was my answer," PM Modi told the Lower House .
He further said that no leader anywhere in the world had asked India to stop its response, saying, “No global leader urged India to halt the operation.”
Taking aim at the opposition, he remarked, "On one hand, India is moving ahead at a fast pace towards self-reliance, but Congress is becoming dependent on Pakistan for issues. Unfortunately, Congress is importing issues from Pakistan."
Operation Sindoor, which targeted Pakistani terror infrastructure following the April 22 Pahalgam attack, was completed in under 22 minutes, PM Modi said.
“We destroyed terror sites deep inside Pakistan... Our military told the Pakistan military we had achieved our aim. We achieved our target 100%,” he said, adding that “Pakistani airbases are still in ICU.”
PM Modi was addressing the Lok Sabha during a debate on the Pahalgam terror attack and India’s swift retaliation under Operation Sindoor.
