The armed forces gave a befitting reply..: Manoj Muntashir on Operation Sindoor, its significance

Lyricist Manoj Muntashir praises India's military response in Operation Sindoor and defends multi-party delegations briefing global leaders on terrorism.

"The armed forces gave a befitting reply to the terrorist attack... Ceasefire does not mean Operation Sindoor has stopped. – Manoj Muntashir"

Lucknow, May 23

Renowned lyricist and screenwriter Manoj Muntashir talked about Operation Sindoor and its significance. He also shared his views on multi-party delegations visiting international capitals to brief the global community about its significance and reaffirmed India's firm stance against cross-border terrorism.

Speaking to the media, he said, "Questions were raised on Lord Ram, Lord Krishna, so today if questions are being raised on Operation Sindoor, I am not surprised. For the first time, I have seen the entire nation come under the national flag. The armed forces gave a befitting reply to the terrorist attack. When will we celebrate it, or will we keep on raising questions?... We should celebrate the valour of the armed forces...Ceasefire does not mean that the Operation Sindoor has stopped...If Pakistan does not give up its cowardice, then Operation Sindoor may end only after the destruction of Pakistan.."

He spoke about multi-party delegation that aims to brief international partners on India's response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack and its broader fight against cross-border terrorism while engaging with leaders in Japan, Indonesia, Malaysia, South Korea, and Singapore.

"if there was no all-party delegation and there was a delegation of one party, then the question was inevitable...So I am laughing at the fact that when everyone was sent after consulting all the parties and we selected some delegates who will keep our side on the international forum, I am not able to find any issue.. Why does anyone complain," he added.

The all-party delegation projects India's national consensus and resolute approach to combating terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. It will convey to the world the country's strong message of zero tolerance for terrorism.

India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 as a decisive military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 people were killed.

Indian Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, leading to the death of over 100 terrorists affiliated with terror outfits like the Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.After the attack, Pakistan retaliated with cross-border shelling across the Line of Control and Jammu and Kashmir as well as attempted drone attacks along the border regions, following which India launched a coordinated attack and damaged radar infrastructure, communication centres and airfields across 11 airbases in Pakistan.

After this, on May 10, an understanding of the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan was announced.

Our armed forces have shown tremendous courage! Operation Sindoor was necessary after the cowardly Pahalgam attack. But we must be careful with war-mongering language - destruction of Pakistan isn't the solution. Strong borders and smart diplomacy will serve us better in long run. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

While I appreciate our soldiers' bravery, mixing religious figures like Lord Ram with military operations seems unnecessary. Let's keep the focus on national security rather than religious symbolism. The all-party delegation approach is good - shows unity against terrorism.

Finally some strong action after years of patience! Pakistan only understands this language. But ceasefire was the right decision - we achieved our objectives without escalating to full war. Hope our neighbors learn the lesson now. Salute to Indian Army! 💪

The international outreach is crucial. Many countries don't understand our constant struggle with cross-border terrorism. Hope the delegation presents facts effectively in ASEAN nations. We need global support to isolate terror sponsors.

While the operation was successful, we must think of Kashmiris caught in this cycle of violence. Military action alone won't solve this - need political solutions too. Also, what about Chinese support to Pakistan? That elephant in room needs addressing.

Proud of our forces! 👏 But can we please have less chest-thumping and more focus on preventing such attacks in first place? Better intelligence, faster development in border areas, and engaging with local populations would help more than reactive operations.
