"Any talks with Pakistan can happen only on terrorism and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir," the prime minister said
PM Modi said that while Pakistan pleaded with India to stop the military offensive, New Delhi considered it only after they promised to stop their misadventure
The prime minister termed the Pahalgam attack as the most "barbaric face of terrorism", saying it was personal pain for him, but the enemy has now realised the consequences of removing "sindoor from the forehead of our women"
PM Modi said Operation Sindoor was not just a name but, through it, the whole world saw India's resolve turn into action and more than 100 dreaded terrorists were slaughtered
PM Modi said India will not see terrorists and their state sponsors separately
