UP CM Adityanath lauded Operation Sindoor, India's response to the Pahalgam attack, as a testament to "Atmanirbhar Bharat" and the success of "Make in India."
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath highlighted on Friday how Operation Sindoor, India's response to the Pahalgam terror attack, is also a great example of Atmanirbhar Bharat, which showcased valour of the Indian armed forces and solidified the country's defence.
Adityanath credited the success of Operation Sindoor to the Make In India initiative, launched by PM Modi 10 years ago, which has contributed to India's self-reliance in defence production. He stated that the operation is a testament to India's growing strength and its commitment to protecting its citizens.
"Under India's new defence policy, under which the enemy's air defence system were destroyed, Indian armed forces demonstrated their valour and solidified India's defence. This also makes the world feel the power of Made In India, started by PM Modi 10 years ago. This was seen by the world this time through Operation Sindoor. This is a great example of Aatmanirbhar Bharat," CM Adityanath said.
The Uttar Pradesh CM is in Kanpur for the Prime Minister's visit, who is set to lay the foundation stone and inaugurate various developmental projects in the city.
Adityanath praised India's military strength and the success of Operation Sindoor, highlighting the country's growing defence capabilities under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. Adityanath emphasized that the operation demonstrated India's ability to respond decisively to threats, showcasing the valour of the Indian armed forces.
"I welcome Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the land of Kanpur after Operation Sindoor. Giving the utmost priority to the security of the nation. The reply has been given to the enemy in the language they understand, first with surgical strikes, then air strikes, and now with Operation Sindoor, today the whole world looks at strength of India's armed forces as an example," he said.
"PM's statement that Operation Sindoor is a pledge for justice displays the sentiments of every Indian and steely resolve of the country," CM Adityanath added.
