In a fiery and assertive speech delivered during a public rally in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath declared that the time has come for Pakistan to face the consequences of its own actions. Reinforcing India’s new strategic and uncompromising posture, the Chief Minister said, “Naya Bharat kisi ko chhedta nahi, lekin koi chhedta hai toh use chhodta bhi nahi” (New India does not provoke anyone, but if provoked, it does not spare either).
Yogi Adityanath’s comments came amid rising tensions in the region and growing concerns over cross-border terrorism. He praised the Indian armed forces and the recent success of “Operation Sindoor,” which reportedly neutralized a significant number of terrorists attempting to infiltrate Indian territory.
“Pakistan’s End Is Near”: Yogi Adityanath
Continuing his address, the CM Yogi made a sharp remark about Pakistan’s future, and stated that Pakistan has already outlived its relevance. “Pakistan has survived for 75 years by promoting terrorism. But now, that time is up. The same terrorism it nurtured for years will ultimately destroy it,” he said.
Drawing parallels from Indian mythology, CM Yogi Adityanath compared India’s response to terrorism with Lord Hanuman’s meeting with Ravan. He recalled how Hanuman ji told Ravan that he only struck back after being attacked, and if Ravan’s son died, it was due to his own actions, not Hanuman’s fault. The Chief Minister’s words were met with loud applause from the audience.
Yogi Adityanath stressed that this is a “New India,” one that is both patient and powerful. “We never initiate conflict. But we do not shy away from giving a befitting reply. Our armed forces act with precision, and our government is determined to protect its citizens,” he asserted.
Referring to a recent incident where 26 innocent Indian civilians were killed in a terror attack allegedly backed by Pakistan, Adityanath said, “India did not attack Pakistan. But our soldiers eliminated 124 terrorists in retaliation. These terrorists were being sheltered and trained in Pakistan.”
Simultaneously, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, speaking at the 22nd BSF Decoration Ceremony held in Delhi on the same day, echoed similar sentiments. While delivering the Rustamji Memorial Lecture, the Union Minister praised the Border Security Force (BSF) for its commendable role in executing “Operation Sindoor”.
“OP Sindoor revealed the truth – that terrorism in India is not homegrown. It is entirely Pakistan-sponsored,” Shah said. He commended the BSF for its courage and effective response, ensuring that no ‘nefarious designs’ of the neighboring country succeeded.
Operation Sindoor: A Strategic Success
“Operation Sindoor,” though not officially detailed in public forums due to security sensitivities, is understood to be a covert military and intelligence-led operation that thwarted a large-scale infiltration bid across the border. According to sources in the defence establishment, the operation involved coordination between BSF, Army intelligence, and special forces units, resulting in the elimination of over 100 trained terrorists and the destruction of multiple launch pads across the Line of Control.
The operation’s success has boosted morale in the armed forces and served as a clear message to hostile elements that India’s internal security is uncompromising.
The comments by both Yogi Adityanath and Amit Shah have found strong resonance among the Indian public and across political lines, especially at a time when national security is a key concern. Many on social media hailed the government’s clarity and resolve in responding to external threats without hesitation.
“India has shown maturity and restraint for decades. But the time for silence is over,” said a former Army officer, welcoming the bold statements from the political leadership.
India’s growing diplomatic influence has also resulted in Pakistan facing increasing international isolation. Over the past few years, India has repeatedly presented dossiers to the United Nations and other global bodies exposing Pakistan’s involvement in terror financing and training. Several countries have expressed support for India’s right to defend itself and have asked Pakistan to take concrete action against terror groups operating from its soil. Moreover, with Pakistan’s economic condition deteriorating and its political system plagued with instability, analysts believe the country is rapidly losing its standing in global geopolitics.
Yogi Adityanath’s speech in Ayodhya wasn’t just a political statement, it was a reinforcement of a larger national sentiment. His assertion that “New India won’t tolerate provocation” reflects a nationwide shift in public expectations from the government when it comes to handling security threats.
The narrative is now clear: India will not initiate conflict, but any act of aggression will be met with decisive action. Pakistan, meanwhile, continues to battle internal crises and international disapproval, and according to leaders like Adityanath, is now being punished by the very forces it once empowered.
As the world watches closely, India stands firm committed to peace, yet fully prepared for war if peace is threatened. The message has been delivered loud and clear: This is not the India of the past; this is the New India.
