Op Sindoor made it clear who stands with India: Ex-principal adviser to MoD
Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: Operation Sindoor made it clear who stands with India diplomatically, former principal adviser to the Ministry of Defence, Lieutenant General Vinod Khandare (retired) has said. Independence Day 2025 Modi signals new push for tech independence with local chips Before Trump, British used tariffs to kill Indian textile Bank of Azad Hind: When Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose gave India its own currency War is a costly affair and leads to pressure on a country's economy, he further said, stressing that a lot of work needs to be done on civil defence as it will continue to remain a "vulnerability". The Army veteran was in Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar city on Sunday for an interaction with public on Operation Sindoor, during an event organised by a local NGO. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Do you have a mouse? Desert Order Undo India destroyed nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir with precision strikes in May as part of the Operation Sindoor in response to the April 22 Pahalgam massacre in which 26 persons were killed by terrorists. Asked about takeaways from the Operation Sindoor, Lt Gen Khandare told PTI, "It is clear that diplomatically who is there with you (India) and who is not. Internally it is clear where the problems or faultlines are. If you think comprehensively, the identification of faultlines has come out very clearly." Live Events The "selfish interests" have also become clear, he said. Besides, we have to work a lot on civil defence because it will continue to remain a vulnerability, he added. "Today, with the kind of missiles and the reach that you have, everything is approachable. We are ahead in critical technologies and research," he pointed out. He further said a major part of transformation is that the one who is going to use that technology should be proficient. From the lab to the battlefield, it is a complete chain. "I think we have understood where we have to stand," Lt Gen Khadare said. He also said there is a major issue in border areas that has to be addressed by state governments. " Drone attacks impact the civilians. What about their shelters? Border states should be the first to have some regulation that every home has a shelter beneath, like in Israel and Ukraine. I think we have to learn from others also so that we don't repeat mistakes which they ignored," he said. Asked during the public interaction why Operation Sindoor took a sudden pause when there was a "win-win" situation, Lt Gen Khandare said, "I was with the defence minister then and discussions take place on such things at different levels. War is a costly affair and pressure comes on the economy of a country." It is clear that we have to be a developed country by 2047, he noted. "We have hard choices at times, to indulge in war with a nonsensical country like Pakistan or teach them a lesson and get back to our work. We have to avoid the mistake that took place in Russia-Ukraine war," he said. Punishment can be given again if they (Pakistan) commit the mistake again, he added. People think in that manner (to continue Op Sindoor) from a patriotic point of view. But pragmatism says it has be thought about how much punishment is to be given and why, Lt Gen Khandare said. "The aim of our government was to damage or destroy had to teach a lesson to the terrorist organisations," he said. "We succeeded in that but they (Pakistan) targeted civilian areas which was unacceptable, so we targeted their military establishments. Some people think we would have gone for PoK. But it is a costly, deliberate operation and needs preparations," he added.

Not so much Putin-Trump summit, it's Modi's GST rationalisation promise that is pushing market up: Sunil Subramaniam
Sunil Subramaniam , Market Expert, says the Trump-Putin Peace Summit signals a potential easing of US-Russia relations, benefiting countries like India by reducing the risk of additional sanctions. Even if all agreements aren't met, it won't be seen as a failure of the meeting, as Putin has the authority to make decisions unilaterally. However, a bigger thing for India will be the GST rationalisation that the prime minister announced on August 15. Almost 98% of the items are going to see GST cut and it is likely to be signed before Diwali. Post the joint press conference with Putin, Donald Trump said that many points were agreed to, but a few remain. What could possibly he be hinting at or referring to when he says that a few remain but many were agreed upon? Sunil Subramaniam: I think that it is basically territory driven. Russia has occupied certain key Ukrainian territories and two big things are which territories Putin is willing to give away and what he wants to retain. Otherwise, he said 8 out of 10 areas have been mostly conclusive. In fact, he has rated the meeting 10 on 10 from that perspective. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 15 Most Beautiful Women Ever Today's NYC Undo I am saying this because he was very clear that he was not seeking a solution from this meeting. Even before this meeting he said that yes, the next stage would be for a meeting with Mr Zelenskyy and Russia and the US probably together. From what he wanted to get away with, he has gotten away with that. So, to that extent, the meeting must be described as a success because people were expecting a solution to the war from this, I think that was not even what Mr Trump was expecting. So, these two big things are one thing. But more importantly it indicates an easing of relationship between the US and Russia and that is extremely good news. Let us say that Mr Putin has agreed to certain things and these two are disputable. Now Trump is going to speak to NATO, and get them to agree to Putin's demands. If they do not, Mr Trump can always claim that look I brought a deal to the table, you guys are not accepting, now do what you want. So, this clearly represents that Mr Trump and Putin have agreed on certain things and as an India-based observer and from our country's perspective, Russia and the US getting there is positive for us because additional sanctions could come through if this meeting was a disaster. That is not going to happen. Second, if all things do not go through, it is not a failure of Putin-Trump meeting. It is not Mr Trump's failure. Remember, he is dealing with a leader who has no democracy to go and represent his case to. Mr Putin is the ultimate decision maker. Even if he decides to give up some Russian wins there, nobody is going to object to him. So, he is talking to a person who can conclude a deed, whereas that is not necessarily true in other countries with our democracy. Live Events You Might Also Like: China's $11 trillion stock market is a headache for both Xi and Trump So, to that extent, it is positive from an India perspective that the danger of secondary sanctions is removed there and if things worsen, he may now need to act on China and not put more pressure on India because he has taken the India pressure to the maximum extent already. With respect to the Indian market, FIIs have been on a selling spree leading to a bit of volatility. Is that going to continue? How do you see the Indian market moving forward in the near term? Are we going to be largely insulated due to domestic investor interest? Sunil Subramaniam: Markets will be relatively calm about this news. They do not need to jump up. We have a big thing in India in terms of GST rationalisation that the prime minister announced on August 15 in his independence day speech. The details are to come out and almost 98% of the items are going to see a reduction in GST and it is likely to be signed before Diwali. The markets should react positively on the consumption stocks and the banking related stocks on Monday. So, the markets will be up. How much of it can be attributed to this easing of Trump-Putin relation and how much to the local factors we have to see. I expect the markets to be positive and FII also because they will see this growth in the Indian consumption sector may come in and start buying into FMCG and consumer discretionary stocks. So, the Indian market will respond positively. Not all can be attributed to the Trump-Putin meeting but definitely there are enough wins here. The second point is Pakistan is taking an edge over India in terms of ties with the US and that is what the main problem is. But two things I would like to say here, one is that India is not for sale. We are not willing to give up our Bitcoin just to make up with the president. We are not going to propose his name for a Nobel Prize just because of a deal. We are a nation which is strong on our own. So, there is pride at stake here. We are not going to put all those just to have a good relationship with Mr Trump. You Might Also Like: Measured optimism returns to markets as Trump hints at softening additional tariffs on India Number two is that Mr Trump has not helped that cause by using very damaging language. He called them obnoxious tariff related things. He also called India a dead economy. He is not the most popular person in India right now and India has also taken an iron hand in a velvet glove stance on this. We are not fighting tooth for tooth or throwing insult after insult, but we are staying firm on saying that buying oil from Russia will be based on our economic needs and what our citizens need. So there is going to be a different way that this relationship pans out. So, to that extent, secondary sanctions may ease away. Regarding the 50% tariff on India, I treat the 25% as an economic tariff, the second 25 as a political tariff. The chances of political tariff may ease up in the coming weeks based on how this goes because I do not think Mr Trump is going to be angry with Putin for anything because Putin has said I am looking to end the war. So, to that extent, whatever he wanted to punish India for as a route to make Putin agree to a meeting and do something that has been achieved. He could ease up on the 25% that if announced in the next couple of weeks, will be a huge positive for Indian markets. That is my take on this situation here. The geopolitics does not affect the Indian market so much. The Indian markets react to the Indian impact due to these talks.
