Meanwhile on Thursday, Pakistani media and Reuters reported a series of loud explosions in Lahore and some other cities of Pakistan. However, the Indian government has not given its response on the incident.
Rijiju told the media that leaders cutting across party lines unanimously congratulated the armed forces on the success of Operation Sindoor and assured their full support to the government.
The Union Minister said, “Each leader expressed their views with responsibility and maturity, recognising the major challenge the country is currently facing… The Defence Minister said, ‘We don’t form the government just to rule’.”
The Defence Minister informed all the parties that 100 terrorists were killed in “precise” attacks on nine terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). He further assured that India wouldn’t back down if Pakistan retaliated.
According to Sources, DM Singh said, “About 100 terrorists were killed. There is no concrete information yet. The counting is still on. We do not want to escalate the matter. If Pakistan does so, we will not back down either.”
