Operation Sindoor just a trailer, Rajnath Singh warns Pakistan; cautions IMF about its aid to Islamabad

Issuing a stern warning to Pakistan, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, on Friday, said Operation Sindoor is not over yet, and whatever has happened was just a trailer.

Singh, who is visiting the Bhuj Air Force station in Gujarat, said India has kept Pakistan on probation. Bhuj airbase was one of the military installations targeted by Pakistan last week.

Pointing out that the entire world has seen how terrorist camps in Pakistan were destroyed, he said if the country fails to end its support to terrorism, India will come out with even stricter measures.

Hailing the role played by the Indian Air Force and Air Chief Marshal A.P. Singh in Operation Sindoor, the defence minister said, “In this operation, you not only dominated the enemies but also successfully decimated them.”

He observed that the operation showcased the ability of IAF to reach every corner of Pakistan. “It would not be incorrect for me to say that the duration people take to have breakfast, you used that duration to deal with enemies. You dropped missiles by going to the land of enemies. Its echo did not remain restricted just to the borders of India, the entire world heard it. That echo wasn't just of missiles but also of your valour and the bravery of jawans of the Indian armed forces.”

He claimed that he believes Pakistan will spend a large portion of the funds it received from International Monetary Fund (IMF) to fund terrorism and urged the international body to rethink its decision to fund Pakistan.

“Only yesterday, I met our brave Army personnel in Srinagar. Today, I am meeting the air warriors here. Yesterday, I met our jawans in the northern region, and today I am here in the western part of the country meeting the air warriors and other security personnel. I feel the enthusiasm on seeing the high josh and energy on both fronts. I am assured that you secure India's borders," the defence minister said.
