Referring to recent and past attacks, she stressed that the time for 'hesitations and half-measures' was over. Firm stand against terror attacks Bhattacharya questioned the notion that firm measures would destabilize peace, asking if peace had prevailed during the Pulwama attack where 40 CRPF personnel were killed, the Uri ambush on soldiers, or the Pathankot airbase strike. She argued that silence cannot be considered diplomacy and appeasement cannot be strategy. 'When terror is exported as state policy, the only answer is strength,' she said. She pointed to actions such as the surgical strikes, Balakot airstrikes, and the recent Operation Sindoor as examples of India's willingness to act decisively.
