00:00Claiming victory is an old habit.
00:02After 1975, it was the same.
00:04After 1975, it was the same.
00:071999,
00:08Kargil Ball,
00:09it was the same.
00:10It was the same.
00:12It was the same.
00:14It was the same.
00:15It was the same.
00:18It was the same.
00:19It was the same.
00:19But it was the same.
00:20Rishib,
00:20on your question
00:24regarding the interview
00:28that the Park Foreign Minister
00:29gave.
00:31In the last week,
00:33as a result of
00:33Operation Sindur,
00:37Pakistan has seen
00:38its terrorist centres
00:39in Mahabalpur,
00:41Murudke,
00:42Muzaffrabad
00:42and other places
00:44destroyed.
00:47You have been informed
00:48of it in several
00:49of the briefings
00:50that we have had.
00:52Thereafter,
00:53its military capabilities
00:54were significantly degraded
00:55by us
00:57and key air bases
00:58effectively
00:59put out of action.
01:01If the Pakistani
01:02FM wishes
01:03to project
01:04these as
01:05achievement,
01:07obviously,
01:07he is welcome
01:07to do so.
01:09Where India is concerned,
01:11our stand was very clear
01:12and consistent
01:13from the start.
01:14we would target
01:17terrorist infrastructure
01:18operating out of Pakistan.
01:21If the Pakistani
01:22military stayed out,
01:23there would be no problem.
01:25If they fired on us,
01:27we would respond
01:27suitably.
01:30Till the 9th,
01:31till the night
01:32of 9th May,
01:34Pakistan was threatening
01:35India
01:36with a massive assault.
01:38once their attempt
01:40failed on
01:4110th May morning
01:42and they received
01:44a devastating
01:45Indian
01:46counter response,
01:48their tune
01:48changed
01:49and their
01:51DGMO
01:52eventually
01:52reached out to us.
01:55I have made,
01:56I just referred to
01:57the timings,
01:57etc.,
01:58as to when
01:58they reached out.
01:59In essence,
02:00India's position
02:01remained the same.
02:02Pakistan's position
02:04changed on
02:0510th May
02:06morning
02:06after its
02:08air bases
02:08were effectively
02:10put out of action.
02:13All you have to do
02:14is to
02:15look at
02:16who called
02:16who
02:17to negotiate
02:18the terms
02:20of the cessation
02:21of firing.
02:22By the way,
02:23we are living
02:24in a day
02:25and age
02:26where
02:26you have
02:28satellite pictures
02:30available commercially
02:31I urge you
02:33to look at
02:34the satellite
02:35pictures of
02:36the sites
02:36which Pakistan
02:37says
02:38or claims
02:40to have
02:40attacked in
02:41India.
02:42Contrast it
02:43with the sites
02:44and places
02:45which
02:45we successfully
02:47targeted
02:48and destroyed.
02:49That will
02:50give you
02:50a clear answer.
02:52You know,
02:52claiming victory
02:53is an old
02:53habit.
02:551975
02:56was this
02:56and
02:571999
02:58Kargil
03:01Ball
03:01was this
03:02and
03:03Pakistan
03:03was the
03:04last
03:04one
03:04.
