New Delhi: In unusually strong remarks, Army chief General Upendra Dwivedi said Friday that Pakistan must stop sponsoring terrorism as India will not show restraint if there is an Operation Sindoor 2.0.
“India is fully prepared this time. We will not show the restraint we exhibited during Operation Sindoor 1.0. This time the action will be such that Pakistan will have to think whether it wants to exist geographically. If Pakistan wants to continue with its position in geography, it should stop its state-sponsored terrorism,” he said.
The Army chief made the remarks while interacting with troops posted in forward locations in Rajasthan including the Bikaner Military Station.
He said he was there to review preparedness in case there is an Operation Sindoor 2.0.
His warning came amid continued concerns over cross-border terrorism and propaganda emanating from Pakistan.
India has made it clear that future terror attacks will be considered as an act of war and will be responded to accordingly.
