CDS Anil Chauhan Discusses Operation Sindoor

Chief of Defense Staff (CDS) General Anil Chauhan participated in a program titled 'Future Wars and Warfare' at Savitribai Phule Pune University. During this event, he made significant revelations regarding Operation Sindoor.

General Chauhan stated that on May 10, around 1 PM, Pakistan aimed to bring India to its knees within 48 hours. Multiple attacks were launched, and they attempted to escalate the conflict. In contrast, our focus was solely on targeting terrorist bases.

Pakistan Realizes Its Mistake

The CDS further explained that the operation, which Pakistan anticipated would last 48 hours, concluded in approximately 8 hours. Following this, they reached out for dialogue. Chauhan emphasized that Pakistan must have realized that engaging in war would lead to its defeat.

Terrorism is Not a Valid Approach

General Chauhan remarked that the conflict began with a terrorist attack in Pahalgam. He questioned whether terrorism could be considered a legitimate method of warfare, stating that it lacks established rules. He noted that while our adversaries aimed to harm India, they ultimately failed.

A New Line Against Terrorism

Chauhan asserted that warfare has existed as long as human civilization itself. He highlighted two critical elements in any conflict: violence and the politics behind it. The third element is ongoing dialogue, which is essential. He stated that we have drawn a new line in our fight against terrorism.
