Prime Minister Narendra Modi was felicitated by the NDA parliamentary party on Tuesday (August 5, 2025) for his government's firm response to the Pahalgam terror attack under Operation Sindoor.

In his speech, Mr. Modi noted that August 5 was a historic day as Article 370, which gave special rights to the erstwhile State of Jammu and Kashmir, was abrogated on this day.

The NDA government has followed the Constitution in its true spirit, he added.

The Prime Minister also praised Home Minister Amit Shah and noted that he has become the longest-serving incumbent in the Ministry, sources said.

In a swipe at the Opposition, he said it must be wondering if it erred by seeking a debate on Operation Sindoor.
