'Only In Banana Republic...': CPI(M) MP Mocks Pak Army Chief Asim Munir In Malaysia Source: While addressing the Indian diaspora in Malaysia, CPI(M) MP Dr. John Brittas reaffirmed India's longstanding commitment to its no first use nuclear policy. He highlighted that India is among the few nations that has pledged not to use nuclear weapons as a first strike. Emphasising peaceful coexistence, Brittas noted that successive Indian governments have extended a hand of friendship to Pakistan. Mocking Pakistan and its army chief, John Brittas said, 'Military leader Asim Munir has self-declared himself to be the field marshal. It happens only in a banana republic or in a rogue nation.' He called on the international community to break its silence and take a firm stand against terrorism in all its forms. #johnbrittas #malaysia #indianuclearpolicy #nofirstuse #pakistanarmy #asimmunir #terrorism #globalunity #peacefulcoexistence #indiapakistan #diplomacy #allpartydelegation #cpim #indiandiaspora #counterterrorism #nucleardeterrence #internationalrelations #roguestate #bananarepublic #standagainstterror #pahalgamattack #toi #toibharat

"BrahMos Gave Pak Sleepless Nights": PM's Sharp Response To Shehbaz Sharif
New Delhi: India's BrahMos missile gave Pakistan 'sleepless nights', Prime Minister Narendra Modi declared Friday as he poured yet more scorn on Pak, three weeks after Operation Sindoor - the country's armed response to the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam in April. In Kanpur to launch infrastructure projects worth nearly Rs 50,000 crore, the Prime Minister pivoted from the development of the state to lavish praise on the Indian military, declaring "we destroyed terrorist hideouts in Pakistan (by) going hundreds of miles inside (that country)". "Our armed forces' heroic acts forced the Pak Army to plead to stop the war," Mr Modi thundered, picking up from similar speeches in his home state of Gujarat and Bihar, where his Bharatiya Janata Party is allied with the ruling Janta Dal United and faces an election this year. In his Kanpur speech, the Prime Minister proclaimed Op Sindoor had showcased India's "military might" to the world, and reserved special praise for the BrahMos missile. #WATCH | Kanpur, UP: Prime Minister Narendra Modi says, " We entered their (terrorists) camps and destroyed the terror sites in Pakistan. Our Armed Forces showed such courage that the Pakistan Army ended up begging to stop the war...I want to tell enemies who begged us to stop… — ANI (@ANI) May 30, 2025 BrahMos had given the Pak Army 'sleepless nights', the PM claimed. Mr Modi's BrahMos callout comes after Pak Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif re-confirmed this week that Indian missiles - fired on the nights of May 9 and 10 - struck several of its targets. The flurry of missiles, which included the BrahMos, caught the Pak military off-guard, Mr Sharif said in Azerbaijan. Pak, he said, had planned an attack just before the BrahMos struck. Earlier in May Mr Sharif confirmed Indian missiles, including the BrahMos, had struck Pak's critical Nur Khan air base and other targets inside its territory in the early hours of May 10. NDTV Special | 5 Things India Plans For BrahMos After Op Sindoor Success The missiles fired by India were part of Op Sindoor, and in response to drones and missiles launched by Pak on the night of May 7. Pak's strikes, in turn, were after India disabled terrorist camps at nine locations inside Pak and Pak-occupied Kashmir, including the Lashkar HQ. A proxy of the Lashkar-e-Taiba, a banned terrorist group, had claimed the Pahalgam attack. Hostilities were eventually stopped after a ceasefire on May 12. Since then Mr Modi has been fiercely targeting Pak and its military establishment, warning both against resuming the conflict and demanding they dismantle terrorist infrastructure. NDTV Exclusive | Before-After Satellite Pics Show Damage To Pak Bases On the question of resumption of ties with Pakistan, the Prime Minister has said Islamabad must first show proof of credible action against cross-border terrorist activities and the operation of terror groups from its soil, and vacate illegally-occupied areas of Kashmir. The Prime Minister has repeatedly declared Operation Sindoor remains an active military exercise, with the Indian armed forces ready to respond to any terrorist attack or Pak strike. In Gujarat the PM accused Pakistan of using terrorism as a weapon and of "waging war" against India, declaring "we have decided to remove the 'terror thorn' from India". Forty-eight hours later, in Bengal, which votes next year, he said the country's armed forces had avenged the "audacity of terrorists" who insulted the dignity of Indian women. And then, in Bihar later the same day, he unveiled dramatic metaphors describing Pakistan as a 'snake', and said, "If it raises its hood again, it will be dragged out of its hole and trampled..." In Bihar too the PM was inaugurating development projects worth Rs 50,000 crore.

Shehbaz Sharif admits Pakistan caught unawares by Brahmos missile
Shehbaz Sharif on Brahmos Missile: Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif admitted that the Pakistan Army was caught off guard by India's Brahmos missile strikes on May 9-10, which included the Rawalpindi airport. Sharif revealed that Pakistan had planned a retaliatory attack, but India preempted it with the Brahmos strikes across multiple provinces. The strikes damaged the northern air command-control network at Nur Khan airbase. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads ( Originally published on May 29, 2025 ) Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif , notwithstanding his earlier claims of a military "victory" against India, on Thursday suddenly admitted that the Pakistan Army was "caught unawares" on the intervening night of May 9-10 when India used Brahmos missiles to strike, including the airport in who was speaking at an event in Azerbaijan, said Pakistan planned to attack India on May 10 after the morning prayers. Before Pakistan could act, India's long-range supersonic Brahmos cruise missiles hit multiple targets in Pakistan, across several provinces, Sharif admitted. Sharif said he was informed of the early morning attack by Gen Asim Munir, who has now been promoted to the rank of Field Marshal."Our armed forces were prepared to act at 4.30 in the morning (May 10) after the Fajr prayers to teach a lesson. But before that hour even arrived, India once again launched a missile attack using Brahmos, targeting various provinces of Pakistan, including the airport in Rawalpindi."It is unclear why Sharif admitted a failure during a foreign trip and that too in the presence of Munir.
