Earlier on Thursday morning, the Prime Minister inaugurated 103 redeveloped railway stations across the country from Deshnok, near the Pakistan border. He also flagged off the Bikaner-Bandra train and laid the foundation stone for various development projects worth Rs 26,000 crore.Modi arrived at Nal Airbase in Bikaner and proceeded to the Karni Mata temple to offer prayers. From there, he reached Palana to address the public gathering.Referring to the recent Pahalgam attack, Modi said, “On the 22nd, India eliminated nine major terrorist hideouts within 22 minutes. The world has now seen what happens when sindoor (vermilion) turns into gunpowder.”Drawing a historical parallel, Modi recalled the 2019 Balakot airstrikes. “After the Balakot operation, my first public rally was held in Rajasthan. Once again, history repeats itself. After Operation Sindoor, I am addressing the people from Veerbhoomi (land of the brave),” he said.”There will be no trade, no talks with Pakistan. If there is any conversation, it will be only about Pakistan-occupied Kashmir,” he declared.Outlining the principles behind Operation Sindoor, the Prime Minister said, “First, any terrorist attack on India will receive a befitting reply, on our terms. Thevl tme, method, and conditions will be chosen by our forces. Second, India will not be intimidated by nuclear threats. Third, we will not differentiate between terrorist organizations and the governments that support them — they will be treated as one.”Modi further said, “Pakistan knows it cannot win a conventional war against India. That’s why it has weaponised terrorism. But it has forgotten that Modi, the servant of Mother India, stands firm with a proud chest. My mind remains calm, but my blood is hot. It is no longer blood, but burning sindoor flowing through my veins.”The Prime Minister’s fiery speech comes amid heightened national security concerns and rising tensions along the border. His message in Bikaner was loud and clear — India will not tolerate terrorism and will retaliate with full force.
