‘Terror camps crumbled’
Referring to Operation Sindoor, the Prime Minister said the precision strikes sent a powerful message to terror groups and their supporters.
“During Operation Sindoor, you must have seen the explosions that struck terrorist hideouts. Those explosions have resonated across the world,” PM Modi said.
“When such a decisive strike was carried out against terror camps, didn’t it make you feel proud?” he asked the gathering.
India’s fight against terrorism
PM Modi said India no longer remains silent in the face of terrorism and is committed to taking decisive action to protect its citizens and national security.
He emphasised that the country’s strong response to terrorism reflects the confidence and capabilities of a “New India” determined to safeguard its interests.
Governance reforms highlighted
The Prime Minister also spoke about the government’s citizen-centric approach, modifying the traditional Sanskrit phrase “Atithi Devo Bhava” (Guest is God) to “Nagarik Devo Bhava” (Citizen is God).
He said governance in India is now focused on empowering citizens through transparent policies, digital transformation and improved public service delivery.
