Operation Sindoor was swift and precise, says Governor R.N. Ravi

Operation Sindoor will go down in history as a 'war' that achieved its goal, Governor R.N. Ravi said here on Sunday. The war was precise and swift, he added, calling it a watershed moment for India. 'The 88-hour 'war' could have ended earlier, but for Pakistan, which escalated it. We only wanted to teach them a lesson. We exercised restraint by attacking terror camps alone. The absolute clarity at the political, policy, and execution level was a rare combination that enabled us to achieve success,' he said, adding that India was only responding to the terror attack on innocent civilians at Pahalgam in Kashmir. By destroying Pakistan's critical air bases and making them non-operational, India had dealt a blow to Pakistan's efforts. Unlike the wars fought by Ukraine and Russia, and Iran and Israel, India's was precise and swift, he said. India had busted the claim that terrorists functioned autonomously, Mr. Ravi said, adding that there was no distinction between terrorists and Pakistan military. He said the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, which was 'unfair' to India, was a bold move. Mr. Ravi said Tamil Nadu was known for its contribution to Indian military and praised the defence industry for its efforts. The dynamics of war had changed with more unmanned vehicles being deployed. The IIT-M could use its talent to improve the number of patents they register in a year and help the country, he added. He honoured senior officers of the Indian Army, Navy and Air Force, and praised IIT-M for its work on defence technology. Earlier, Karanbir Singh Brar, Lieutenant-General and General Officer Commanding (GOC) of Dakshin Bharat area in Chennai, recalled his experiences as a GOC in Balakot. The success of the operation depended on the professionalism of the people behind it. The attack on Pakistan was punitive. There was a new normal after the attack, he said. 'As far as Indian Armed Forces are concerned, it is a serious matter and we don't make noise. We made sure that the war was terminated on our term,' he said. Mr. Brar said the damage to Pakistan was there for all to see, and that India did not suffer damage was clear as the allies of Pakistan had not been able to produce any proof of damage, he said. A video film of Operation Sindoor and the damages to Pakistan airbases was also screened.

Pakistan Condemns US Strikes On Iran Days After Asim Munir Backs Trump For Nobel Peace Prize

Last Updated: Days after nominating Trump for Nobel Peace Prize, Pakistan condemned the US strikes on the nuclear sites of its close ally, Iran, saying they violated international law. Pakistan condemned the US strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities on Sunday, saying they violated all international norms and affirmed Iran's right of self-defence. This statement came days after Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir recommended US President Donald Trump's name for the Nobel Peace Prize. 'Pakistan condemns the US attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities which follow the series of attacks by Israel. We are gravely concerned at the possible further escalation of tensions in the region," said Pakistan's Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar in an official statement. Pakistan said the unprecedented escalation of tensions in West Asia was 'deeply disturbing" and any further escalation will have seriously damaging implications for the region and beyond. — Ishaq Dar (@MIshaqDar50) June 22, 2025 'We emphasise the imperative need to respect civilian lives and properties and immediately bring the conflict to end. All parties must adhere to international law, particularly International Humanitarian Law. Recourse to dialogue, diplomacy, in line with the principles and purposes of the UN Charter remain the only pathway to resolve the crises in the region," he added. Iran and Pakistan are close allies as both countries share a border, Islamic heritage and historic trade routes. Like Iran, Pakistan is an outspoken critic of Israel and opposes Israeli operations in Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank. The two countries conducted a series of high-level visits and security talks after exchanging cross-border strikes targeting what they claimed were terrorist hideouts. Pakistan claimed that as tensions escalated with India, it was President Trump's back-channel diplomacy and strategic foresight that facilitated a ceasefire agreement on May 10, preventing a broader war. Pakistan's government praised Trump's efforts as a watershed moment for regional peace, underscoring his role as a genuine peacemaker. Trump later said he deserved the prize, but lamented that he would not get it due to liberal bias. Trump campaigned for office as a 'peacemaker" who would use his negotiating skills to quickly end wars in Ukraine and Gaza, although both conflicts are still raging five months into his presidency. Pakistan's desperate push was to solidify ties with the United States and get backing for its position on the Kashmir dispute. India has consistently denied any US role in de-escalating the tensions. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a phone call with Trump on June 17, clarified that the ceasefire was achieved through direct communication channels between the Indian and Pakistani militaries, without any external mediation.
