Operation Sindoor: India’s Strategic Shift Towards Indigenisation

India must prepare for unforeseen border conflicts, underscored by the recent four-day skirmish with Pakistan. During Operation Sindoor, India demonstrated its defense capabilities with indigenous technology, urging introspection and a focus on self-reliance. The defense sector is set to embrace innovation and boost domestic manufacturing substantially.

In light of the recent military clashes with Pakistan, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has urged India to prepare for sudden conflicts along its borders, reminiscent of the four-day engagement in May.

Speaking at an event, Singh highlighted India's robust response during Operation Sindoor, which should serve as an educational case in tackling future national security challenges.

He emphasized the role of domestically manufactured defense equipment, which bolstered India's standing globally, and called for continued introspection and innovation. With the global security landscape shifting, Singh advocated for indigenisation as a vital strategy.
