Aftermath of Operation Sindoor: Tensions Rise Along Indo-Pak Border

Retired Brigadier Govind Singh Sisodia asserts India targets only military threats, not civilians, during operations like Balakot and Sindoor. In contrast, recent Pakistan shelling has affected Jammu and Kashmir's border villages, causing panic and damage. India remains vigilant post-Operation Sindoor, focusing on terrorist targets in Pakistan and PoK.

Amid escalating tensions along the border, Brigadier Govind Singh Sisodia (Retd), known for his role in the Black Cat Commando operation during the 26/11 Mumbai terror attack, reiterated India's stance of targeting only military threats during operations such as Balakot and Sindoor. In a statement to ANI, Sisodia emphasized that India does not target civilians, a principle it maintains in all military actions against Pakistan.

Sisodia criticized Pakistan for its recent indiscriminate shelling in Jammu and Kashmir, which he claims ignores distinctions between civilian and military areas, resulting in civilian casualties. This recent act follows India's Operation Sindoor, which struck nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, significantly disrupting terrorist operations.

The aftermath of Operation Sindoor left border villagers in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri district in panic, with the renewed artillery fire causing substantial damage to homes and infrastructure. The Indian Army, while maintaining surveillance on Pakistan's ceasefire violations, intends to counter further aggression, staying committed to eliminating terrorist threats while safeguarding civilian lives.
