'The incident in Pahalgam was truly shocking for the entire world. I believe this is the first time such an atrocity has occurred. In the name of religion, terrorism struck, with terrorists attacking our brothers based on their names and religions. This has left 140 crore Indians deeply upset. In the wake of this, every Indian citizen desired action against Pakistan. They attacked our brothers because of their identities. The world mourned this tragedy. I want to thank our Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, for listening to the voice of the people and taking decisive action against Pakistan. Indians were proud of the government they chose. The Indian Army has done an exemplary job and delivered a strong lesson to Pakistan. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Indian Army for their bravery and commitment,' stated Abu Bakr Naqvi, National Convenor of MRM during the media interaction.
India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 as a decisive military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 people were killed. Indian Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, leading to the death of over 100 terrorists affiliated with terror outfits like the Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.
After the attack, Pakistan retaliated with cross-border shelling across the Line of Control and Jammu and Kashmir as well as attempted drone attacks along the border regions, following which India launched a coordinated attack and damaged radar infrastructure, communication centres and airfields across 11 airbases in Pakistan.
After this, on May 10, an understanding of the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan was announced.

Trump said Pak gave ‘nothing but lies'. So why is he rewarding it?
Trump said Pak gave 'nothing but lies'. So why is he rewarding it? Sachin Parasher TNN May 30, 2025, 17:20 IST IST Despite once slamming Pakistan for deceit and terror links, Trump's muddled response to India's Operation Sindoor — from backing Modi to proposing mediation — risks alienating a key US ally and reviving Cold War-era hyphenation that India rejects outright Not even one year into his first term as president, Donald Trump famously said that the US foolishly gave Pakistan more than $33bn in aid over 15 years, and all Pakistan gave in return was nothing but lies and deceit, thinking of 'our leaders as fools'. They give safe haven to the terrorists we hunt in Afghanistan, added Trump in a post on what was then called Twitter. Cut to 2025 and probe how Trump, more confident and uncompromising in his second term, fared in dealing with India's Operation Sindoor that, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, set out a new normal — nuclear blackmail won't shield terrorists and Pakistan Army will have hell to pay the next time it uses its terror toolkit against India.
