He stated that operations like Op Sindoor, the Balakot Airstrike, and Surgical Strikes represent a move from diplomatic condemnation to proactive military action against terrorism at its source. Singh warned that any future terrorist acts from Pakistan would provoke an even stronger response and called for heightened vigilance against emerging threats, including 'White-Collar Terrorism' and lone-wolf attacks.
