Puducherry May 7 (PTI) Puducherry Chief Minister N Rangasamy hailed the Indian Army on Wednesday for carrying out air strikes on terror targets in Pakistan and Pakistan occupied Kashmir, in response to Pahalgam terror attack.

The ‘Operation Sindoor’ striking the terror hubs is a successful accomplishment, Rangasamy said in a release, and lauded the Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Indian army.
Rangasamy said that the territorial administration would always stand by the Centre to ensure protection of the India and to eradicate terrorism.
Former Lt Governor of Puducherry Kiran Bedi said that “India strikes back on the terror camps which were breeding and training terrorists inside Pakistan thereby dismantling terror industry inside Pakistan”. She added that “it was a focused, measured and coordinated strike by all forces”.
She thanked the Government of India for a mature and restrained strike. Kiran Bedi also said that India had acted after due diligence.
