PM Modi addresses the public in Kanpur.

He addressed the public in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, where he inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for 15 development projects crossing ₹47,600 crores. PM Modi said, “The world witnessed the power of Make in India and its weapon through Operation Sindoor. Our Indian weapons (systems), including the BrahMos missile, entered the enemy territory and caused havoc. The explosions happened on target. We have received this power from our resolve for Aatmnirbhar Bharat.”

PM Modi highlighted India’s resolve to remain self-reliant.

He highlighted India’s firm resolve to remain self-reliant and recalled times when the country relied on other nations for its safety. He said, “There was a time when India depended on other countries for its safety. We have tried to change these circumstances. India becomes Aatmanirbhar, it is good for the economy, but it is also important for the country’s self-respect.”

Three rules for terror response by PM Modi.

Outlining India’s new strategic doctrine, PM Modi laid down a 3-rule framework for tackling terrorism.

• Every terrorist attack will be responded to, and the Armed Forces will determine the nature and timing of the response.
• India won’t be scared of hollow atom bomb threats.
• India will treat terror masters and the government that patronises terrorists similarly.

PM Modi also targeted Pakistan and said, “If I say this straight in Kanpuriya: Dushman kahin bhi ho, honk diya jayega (Wherever the enemy is, they will be hit).” He added, “India will not be scared of hollow threats of an atom bomb and won’t take decisions on this basis (of such a threat). India will look at the ‘aaka’ of terrorism and its sponsoring government with only one view: Pakistan’s state and non-state actors…this game will not work anymore.”
