Mon May 12 14:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Modi Warns Pakistan: Operation Suspended, Not Cancelled
**New Delhi, [Date]** – Prime Minister Narendra Modi issued a stern warning to Pakistan, stating that the recent military operation, “Operation Sindhur,” has only been *suspended*, not cancelled. In a televised address to the nation, Modi emphasized that future action will depend on Pakistan’s behavior. He made it clear that this was not a full stop, but a comma, implying further action is possible.
The Prime Minister directly linked Pakistan’s support of terrorism to its survival, asserting that the elimination of terrorist bases within Pakistan is crucial for its own safety. He reiterated the incompatibility of terrorism with talks or trade, stating emphatically that “terror and talk cannot coexist, terror and trade cannot coexist, water and blood cannot flow together.” He also dismissed any possibility of nuclear blackmail.
Modi highlighted the devastating impact of the suspended operation, asserting that Pakistan suffered significant losses in just three days, prompting them to seek a halt to hostilities. He underscored that India’s actions, including missile and drone strikes, had significantly demoralized terrorist groups.
While affirming that this era is not one of war, Modi equally stressed that it is not an era of terrorism. He cited the destruction of Pakistani drones and the targeting of terrorist infrastructure as evidence of India’s resolve. He mentioned the targeting of Hindu religious sites in Pakistan as further justification for India’s actions.
The Prime Minister concluded by stating that Operation Sindhur, representing the collective sentiments of the Indian people, is a testament to India’s unwavering commitment to justice. The operation’s suspension, he reiterated, is temporary, with future action contingent on Pakistan’s future actions.
