During a fiery Lok Sabha debate on Operation Sindoor, Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi launched a scathing attack on the BJP-led government, questioning security lapses, the abrupt ceasefire with Pakistan, and the lack of accountability post-Pahalgam terror attack. Backed by TMC and Samajwadi Party leaders, the opposition demanded transparency, challenged Prime Minister Modi’s silence, and rejected Defence Minister Rajnath Singh’s explanations as inadequate. The 16-hour session highlighted growing public and political pressure on the government for clear answers on national security.

On May 7, 2025, the Indian Armed Forces launched Operation Sindoor, a swift and precise 22-minute strike targeting nine terror camps in Pakistan and PoK. The operation was a powerful response to the April 22 Pahalgam attack that killed 26 civilians, with high-impact hits on Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba strongholds. The mission demonstrated India’s resolve against terrorism and showcased its indigenous military capabilities.

The United States has officially designated The Resistance Front (TRF), a Pakistan-based proxy of Lashkar-e-Taiba, as a Foreign Terrorist Organization following the deadly Pahalgam attack that killed 26 civilians. India hailed the move as a diplomatic victory and a major step in global efforts against cross-border terrorism.

The recovery of a largely intact Chinese PL-15E missile during India’s Operation Sindoor has sparked global interest, with the US, France, Japan, and Five Eyes alliance nations eager to study its technology. As India weighs sharing the debris, the find could reshape international defense dynamics and highlight India's growing strategic clout in countering China.

India has intensified its diplomatic efforts at the United Nations to designate The Resistance Front (TRF), a Pakistan-based militant group, as a global terrorist organization under the UNSC 1267 Sanctions Committee. The move follows the deadly April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, with India presenting strong evidence linking TRF to the massacre.
