Nation salutes our bravehearts: Amit Shah prides on security personnel of Op Mahadev

Home Minister Amit Shah honors security personnel who eliminated Pahalgam terror attackers in Operation Mahadev, which avenged the killing of 26 civilians.

"The nation salutes our brave hearts. Proud to have felicitated our valorous security personnel - Amit Shah"

New Delhi, August 27

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday felicitated security personnel for their accomplishments during Operation Mahadev, in which all three perpetrators of the ghastly Pahalgam terror attack were eliminated.

"The nation salutes our brave hearts. Proud to have felicitated our valorous security personnel, who successfully carried out 'Operation Mahadev' and eliminated the perpetrators of the Pahalgam terror attack," Shah posted on X.

On July 28, three terrorists were neutralised in a joint operation, which came to be known as Operation Mahadev. The operation was conducted by the Indian Army, CRPF and J&K Police that neutralised terrorists involved in the Pahalgam terror attack, which had claimed 26 civilian lives on April 22.

On July 29, the Union Home Minister confirmed that three terrorists who were involved in the killing of civilians were eliminated by the security forces during Operation Mahadev. Shah said this while speaking in the Lok Sabha amid the ongoing debate on Operation Sindoor and informed that those who killed our citizens in the ghastly Pahalgam terror attack have been killed.

"In a joint Operation Mahadev, the Indian Army, CRPF, and J&K Police have neutralised three terrorists who were involved in the Pahalgam terror attack," Shah said while addressing the lower house.

"Innocent civilians were killed in front of their families while asking about their religion. I condemn this barbaric act. I express my sympathies to the families who lost their loved ones," he added.

Prior to Operation Mahadev, the Indian Armed Forces had launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 as a decisive military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 people were killed.

The Indian Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, leading to the death of over 100 terrorists.

While I appreciate the operation's success, I hope the government also focuses on long-term solutions to prevent such attacks in the first place. Reactive measures alone aren't enough.
