A senior BJP functionary said that this is the Home Minister’s maiden visit to Maharashtra after the Operation Sindoor and the ceasefire between India and Pakistan.
“It is but natural, during his speeches, the Operation Sindoor and the Centre’s zero tolerance for terrorism will dominate. On May 23, he clearly stated that Operation Sindoor had exposed Pakistan’s complicity in terrorism directed at India, and it was the Pakistan Army that replied after we hit their terror bases,” said the BJP functionary.
The Home Minister also said that top Pakistan Army officers were seen offering namaz and shouldering the coffins of the terrorists killed in the May 7 strikes by India on terror hubs in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and Pakistan.
His visit coincides with India’s Operation Sindoor global outreach as various delegations are visiting countries to highlight the threat of terrorism originating from Pakistan and to assert India’s right of self-defence.
