New Delhi, May 7, 2025 — Prime Minister Narendra Modi convened a Union Cabinet meeting today, just hours after the successful execution of Operation Sindoor, an overnight military operation targeting terror infrastructure across the border. The high-level meeting comes on the heels of a Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) session held earlier in the day to assess the mission’s impact and strategic outcomes.
Operation Sindoor, carried out with precision by Indian defence forces, is being hailed as a significant counter-terrorism success. According to initial briefings, the operation effectively neutralized key terror facilities while ensuring zero civilian casualties — a factor being emphasized by officials as a mark of India’s commitment to targeted and responsible action.
Sources say Prime Minister Modi was kept informed of the mission’s progress throughout the night, receiving real-time updates from senior military and intelligence officials. The PM is believed to have closely monitored each phase of the operation, underscoring the high priority accorded to national security under his leadership.
At the Cabinet meeting, a formal resolution is likely to be passed congratulating the armed forces for their bravery, precision, and discipline during the mission. The government is expected to reaffirm its commitment to safeguarding the nation from threats posed by cross-border terrorism and hostile elements.
The operation is also seen as a strong strategic message to adversaries, demonstrating India’s readiness to act decisively when provoked, while remaining within the framework of international norms.
Further details of Operation Sindoor are expected to be shared later by the Ministry of Defence, although officials are maintaining operational secrecy at this time.
