Addressing the Lok Sabha during the debate on Opertion Sindoor - India's counter-terror response to the Pahalgam attack, PM Modi said, 'Operation Sindoor is going on. Pakistan ne dussahas ki kalpana ki toh, usse karara jawab diya jayega (If Pakistan dares to act recklessly, it will be given a fitting response),' he said.
On the continued threat from Pakistan, PM Modi made it clear that India would decide the duration and terms of its response.
'Operation Sindoor is not over. It will continue for as long as necessary. India will decide the terms and on its own timeline and on its own terms,' he repeated.
PM Modi also told the House that on May 9 night, 'US Vice President (JD Vance) tried to reach out to me 3-4 times, but I was busy with meetings with the armed forces'.
'When I returned the call, the US Vice President warned me of a big attack from Pakistan. I told him that if Pakistan attacks India, our attack would be much bigger as we will respond to bullets with cannons,' he said.
PM Modi asserted that no leader of any country asked India to stop the operation.

The prime minister said Pakistani airbases hit by India 'are still in ICU' and the masterminds of the April 22 terror attack continue to have sleepless nights.
'No country in the world has stopped India from any action in its defence against terrorism. Only three countries spoke in favour of Pakistan at the UN,' he added.
He also attacked the Congress for not supporting the valour of Indian soldiers.
'India got support from the entire world, but it is unfortunate that the Congress did not support the valour of our soldiers. Congress leaders targeted me for political gains, but their frivolous statements ended up discouraging our brave soldiers,' he said.
The prime minister noted that India called out Pakistan's nuclear bluff and showed the world that 'we will not bow down to nuclear blackmail'.
'Our operations range from Sindoor to Sindhu (Indus Waters Treaty)… Pakistan knows they have to pay a huge price for any misadventure. Terror attacks were launched earlier and the masterminds of attacks knew nothing would happen, but now they know India will come for them.' PM Modi said drones and missiles made in India exposed the capabilities of Pakistani arms and ammunition during the military operation.

'The world saw the strength of self-reliant India during Operation Sindoor. We destroyed terror sites deep inside Pakistan within 22 minutes to avenge the April 22 Pahalgam attack,' he said.
PM Modi noted that Pakistan had some inkling of Indian action and had started issuing nuclear threats, but could do nothing when terror targets were hit.
'The Congress and its allies have unfortunately become spokespersons of Pakistani propaganda. India is becoming self-reliant, but Congress is now dependent on Pakistan for issues. The entire country is amazed to see Congress give a clean chit to Pakistan and sing the same tune as theirs.
PM Modi said, 'It (Pahalgam attack) was a conspiracy to instigate riots in India and the country's unity foiled that attempt. When I speak of this Parliament session being a Vijayotsav (celebration of victory), it is of destroying the headquarters of terror.' 'I stand here to make a case for India, and to show a mirror to those who do not understand this. I had said that we will teach the terrorists and their masters a befitting lesson which will be beyond their imagination.

'We have complete trust in the capabilities of our armed forces and they were given a free hand to respond. The armed forces taught them such a lesson that the masters of terrorism are still losing their sleep over it,' he added.
