Telugu Desam Party (TDP) MP Kesineni Sivanath on Tuesday hailed Operation Sindoor as a resounding success, lauding the Indian Armed Forces and Prime Minister Narendra Modi for dismantling the terror camps and the subsequent attacks in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
Sivanath also expressed his unwavering support for the central government's firm stance on terrorism. "Operation Sindoor is a very successful operation. We are with the armed forces and the central government. We thank our Prime Minister for destroying the terrorist hideouts and making the huge success of these operations," Sivanath said. Echoing Prime Minister Modi's address to the nation, Sivanath emphasised that India's dialogue with Pakistan would be strictly limited to addressing terrorism and the issue of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). "He also said that the talks will be only on ending terrorism and PoK. There will be no talks about commerce and other things. We are with you, and we thank all the defence personnel behind this operation," he stated, reaffirming the TDP's alignment with the central government's position. Earlier on Sunday, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu said the Prime Minister's speech marked a significant shift in India's security doctrine. "Today, Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji didn't just speak; he shaped India's new doctrine," Naidu wrote in a post on X. He described the address as a "stern warning to Pakistan-sponsored terrorists and a clear message of strength to the world". Noting that the speech coincided with Buddha Purnima, he said, "We walk the path to peace, but we also practice Zero Tolerance towards terrorism." Naidu added that India's use of indigenous drones and defence systems during Operation Sindoor had demonstrated its readiness for modern warfare. "Our Made-in-India defence technology has shown our readiness for modern warfare to protect our nation, making every Indian proud," he said. Earlier, Prime Minister Modi, during his address to the nation on Operation Sindoor, outlined three key pillars of India's security doctrine. Firstly, he mentioned "Decisive Retaliation". It is when any terrorist attack on India occurs; it will be met with a strong and resolute response and it will retaliate on its own terms, targeting terror hubs at their roots. The second is "No Tolerance for Nuclear Blackmail". He noted that India will not be intimidated by any nuclear threats, and any terrorist safe haven operating under this pretext will face precise and decisive strikes. The third one being "No Distinction Between Terror Sponsors and Terrorists", in which the PM stated that India will no longer see terrorist leaders and the governments sheltering them as separate entities.
