Operation Sindoor was a "trusted orchestra" where every musician played a "simultaneous or synergistic role", and that is how in 22 minutes, the Indian armed forces could destroy nine terrorist targets, Army Chief Gen. Upendra Dwivedi said on Saturday (November 22, 2025).
In his address at a convocation ceremony of a Delhi-based management institute, he also said the military operation reflected a "foresight" to anticipate change as the situation unfolded.
An operation that was also about a self-reliant India
It was "a response shaped not in the moment, but through years of imagining how intelligence, precision and technology could converge into action," General Dwivedi said.
India launched the military operation early on May 7 and decimated multiple terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
