'No Strategist In Pakistan Was Prepared...': BJP Lauds CNN-News18's Op Sindoor Documentary
Last Updated:
In the early hours of May 10, Indian airstrikes struck several Pakistani airbases, including Nur Khan, Rafiqi and Murid, dealing a heavy blow to their air command.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday released a new documentary by CNN-News18 on Operation Sindoor, which showcased the capabilities of the Indian Armed Forces and debunked Pakistan's fake narrative.
The documentary titled WATCH INSIDE OPERATION SINDOOR: 88 Hours That Redefined India features CNN-News18's primetime anchors and senior editors who describe how Indian armed forces took out terrorist bases and then gave a befitting reply to Pakistani armed forces bid to attack India by striking Pakistan's air bases.
'As the night of May 9th faded into the early hours of May 10th, something extraordinary happened – something no military strategist in Islamabad had prepared for. Indian airpower, relentless and unyielding, descended again," said BJP IT department in-charge Amit Malviya on X.
The documentary titled INSIDE OPERATION SINDOOR–The 88 Hours That Defined India | When Nur Khan Strike Spooked Pakistan features former Indian Air Force chief Retd Air Chief Marshall RKS Bhadauria, former GOC of the 15 Corps Lieutenant General DP Pandey, former NSAD member and author Tilak Devasher. Military analyst Tom Cooper also features in the documentary.
In the early hours of May 10, Indian airstrikes struck several Pakistani airbases, including Nur Khan, Rafiqi and Murid. 'Within hours, Pakistan's prized military infrastructure was under coordinated aerial siege: Murid, Rafiqui, Sargodha, Chaklala," said Malviya.
Several satellite images have shown evidence of extensive damage in Pakistani airbases, caused by Indian airstrikes during Operation Sindoor. The Indian strike on the Nur Khan airbase – located in Rawalpindi and close to Pakistan Army's headquarters – was a strategic and symbolic blow to Pakistan as it serves as the headquarters of its air mobility command.
'Operation Sindoor is not just a story of tactical success. It is a validation of India's defence indigenisation policies. From air defence systems to drones, from counter-UAS capabilities to net-centric warfare platforms — indigenous technology delivered when it mattered most," said Malviya.
India's Operation Sindoor was in response to the barbaric terror attack in Pahalgam last month, in which 26 tourists were killed.
