India will not tolerate terrorism: CDS

As India and Pakistan are geographically next to each other, some of the top generals of the two countries sat in neighbouring conference rooms during the Shangri-La Dialogue on Saturday afternoon and participated in simultaneous sessions on topics ranging from defence innovation solutions to regional crisis-management mechanisms. Referring to Operation Sindoor, Gen Chauhan said India has drawn a new Laxman Rekha by not tolerating terrorism.

‘Lesson for opponents of Operation Sindoor’

He said that I hope this operation is also a lesson for our opponents. Hopefully they will learn that this is the limit of India's tolerance. General Sahir Shamshad Mirza, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee of the Pakistan Armed Forces, warned what could happen if conflict breaks out again.

He said that if the next time such a conflict occurs, cities are targeted first and borders become irrelevant, the situation could deteriorate to dangerous levels. There is a possibility that due to the limited time frame, the damage and destruction may have already been done before the international community can intervene.
