Pune (Maharashtra) [India], May 10 (ANI): Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Saturday strongly condemned Pakistan's aggressive attempts at disrupting normalcy in India, labelling the neighbour as a 'terrorist country'.
He stated that Pakistan has consistently supported terrorism while reaffirming India's unwavering response in retaliation for those attacks under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership.
Fadnavis expressed pride in the Indian Army's actions amid the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan.
'Pakistan is a terrorist country; it has always supported terrorism. However, India will not stop now. Under the leadership of the Prime Minister, our army is giving an appropriate response. We are proud of our army,' Fadnavis stated.
He further outlined the precautions being taken across the state amidst such escalation, noting that a high-level meeting was held on Friday to assess the situation.
'Just yesterday, we held a meeting based on the war book to determine the precautions we should take. We are taking those necessary measures. All district units have been provided with the required information and resources,' the Maharashtra CM added.
Earlier, in a response to Pakistan's aggressive drone and munition attacks along the western border and Line of Control (LoC) this morning, the Indian Armed Forces targeted critical Pakistani military installations, including technical facilities, command and control centres, radar sites, and ammunition strongholds.
Addressing a joint press conference by the Ministry of External Affairs and the Ministry of Defence on Operation Sindoor, Indian Army Colonel Sofiya Qureshi stated that precision strikes were carried out on Pakistani military targets in Rafiqui, Murid, Chaklala, Rahim Yar Khan, Sukkur, and Chunian, as well as radar sites at Pasrur and Sialkot aviation bases, using air-launched weapons from Indian fighter aircraft.
She further noted that the precision targeting minimised any collateral damage, reiterating India's commitment to not wanting to escalate the situation. (ANI)
