Bikaner, May 22, 2025 – Prime Minister Narendra Modi delivered a powerful speech in Bikaner, Rajasthan, emphasizing India’s unwavering stance against terrorism. Referring to the recent Operation Sindoor, he declared, “Modi’s mind is calm, but his blood runs hot… sindoor flows in my veins,” highlighting his deep commitment to the nation’s security.
Operation Sindoor was launched in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, which targeted Indian civilians. PM Modi revealed that Indian forces neutralized nine major terrorist hideouts within 22 minutes, showcasing the country’s swift and decisive action against threats.
Addressing Pakistan directly, the Prime Minister stated, “There will be neither trade nor talks with Pakistan; if talks, then only about Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.” He further warned that any attempts to harm India would result in severe consequences, asserting that Pakistan’s Rahim Yar Khan airbase is now “in ICU” due to India’s precision strikes.
PM Modi’s speech also touched upon the symbolic significance of sindoor, representing the honor of Indian women. He vowed that those who tried to erase this symbol have been “reduced to dust,” reaffirming the nation’s resolve to protect its citizens and uphold its dignity.
