There was no nuclear discussion between the officials of India and Pakistan during Operation Sindoor in May last year, revealed Indian Army chief General

\n\n

Upendra Dwivedi on Tuesday, January 13. The Indian security forces had mobilised their troops during Operation Sindoor and were \"fully prepared\" for ground operations. India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting terror infrastructure at nine locations in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in retaliation for the April 22 Pahalgam attack that killed 26 civilians. Pakistan responded to the Indian attack on terror infrastructure with a swarm of drones and missiles, all tracked and destroyed by Idnian forces. India and Pakistan reached an understanding on May 10, following a request from Islamabad, to end the conflict after four days of intense cross-border drone and missile strikes. Operation Sindoor remains ongoing and any misadventure by the adversary will be dealt with effectively, Army Chief Gen Upendra Dwivedi said on Tuesday, sending a firm message to Pakistan. \"As you may be aware, Operation Sindoor remains ongoing, and a future misadventure will be resolutely responded to,\" he said. The Army chief, addressing a press conference, said the situation along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China has been stable, but it needs constant vigil. Extensively elaborating on various aspects of Operation Sindoor, Gen Dwivedi said it helped in resetting the strategic assumptions as the Indian military struck deep to dismantle terror infrastructure and puncturing Islamabad's \"longstanding nuclear rhetoric\". \"As far as nuclear rhetoric is concerned, I would like to say that there was no discussion on nuclear in the DGMO talks and whatever nuclear rhetoric was given was given by the politicians or given by the local public in Pakistan. I have no indication that anything of that sort came from the military,\" Gen Upendra Dwivedi said. Gen Dwivedi said the operation was India's calibrated and resolute response to cross-border terrorism, demonstrating readiness, precision, and strategic clarity. He also said that the Indian Army had mobilised its troops and was ready for ground offensives. \"In those 88 hours, you saw that the army's mobilisation to expand the conventional space was such that if Pakistan made any mistake, we were fully prepared to launch ground operations...\" he said. \"The situation along the northern front remains stable, but needs constant vigil. Renewed contact, and confidence-building measures are contributing to the gradual normalisation of the situation,\" he said. \"Concurrently, capability development and infrastructure enhancement are progressing through a whole-of-government approach,\" he added. The Army chief said the situation in Jammu and Kashmir remains sensitive but firmly under control.
