Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the air force personnel at Adampur airbase on Tuesday. He said, 'Bharat Mata ki Jai is not just a proclamation. It is a joint oath of many faces, who put their lives at stake for mother India. It is the voice of every citizen who wants to live for the country, wants to do something. When our soldiers say Maa Bharati ki Jai, the enemy's heart trembles. When our forces deflate the threat of nuclear blackmail, only one thing resonates from the sky to the underworld - Bharat Mata ki Jai.'

'We make the sun rise in the darkness of night'

PM Modi said, 'When our missiles reach the target, the enemy hears - Bharat Mata ki Jai. Even in the darkness of night, when we make the sun rise, the enemy sees - Bharat Mata ki Jai.' He said, 'I can say with pride that all of you have achieved your goal with perfection. Not only were the terrorist camps and their airports destroyed in Pakistan, but their evil designs and audacity were also defeated.'

'Made millions of Indians proud'

The Prime Minister said, 'All of you have made millions of Indians proud. Made every Indian proud. You have created history, that is why I have come among you early in the morning to see you. When the feet of the brave fall on the earth, the earth becomes blessed. When one gets the opportunity to see the brave, life becomes blessed.'

PM Modi said, 'Even after a decade, when this feat will be discussed, its most prominent chapter will be you and your companions. All of you have become a new inspiration for the present as well as the coming generations of the country. Today, from the land of heroes, I salute all the brave soldiers of the Air Force, Navy and Army.'

'Every citizen of the country is indebted to you today'

Addressing the Air Force soldiers, the Prime Minister said, 'Because of your valor, today the echo of Operation Sindoor can be heard in every corner. During this entire operation, every Indian stood with you. Every Indian's prayers were with all of you. Today, every citizen of the country is grateful to its soldiers and their families, and is indebted to them.'

He said that Operation Sindoor is not a normal military operation. It is the confluence of India's policy, intention and decisiveness. India has only postponed its military action against Pakistan.
