In his first meeting with full Council of Ministers after the launch of Operation Sindoor, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said indigenous weapons had proved their might during the operation and noted that the nature of warfare had changed from before. According to those present at the meeting, Mr. Modi said priority should be accorded to “Make in India” with regard to weaponry as much as possible. He said India had shown its might during Operation Sindoor. In a lighter vein, he noted that people in border States like Punjab might have been wondering where tanks and train loads of such weaponry were, as was the case in the past during such hostilities. “The nature of warfare has changed,” he is reported to have said. He asked Ministers in his Council to identify five main successes in their departments and communicate these to the people, in the run-up to the first anniversary of the third Modi government and of 11 years of the NDA government at the helm of affairs. Ministers present at the meeting said he tasked them to be forward-looking and avoid comparisons to what was done in the past. “See what needs to be done,” he is said to have spoken in his address. Presentations on the road map of projects under the Roads and Highways Ministry, and Railways were discussed and a presentation by the Jal Shakti Ministry was also done during the meeting. This was the first meeting of the full Council of Ministers after Operation Sindoor. Sources said the meeting also saw condolences being expressed for the victims of the Bengaluru stampede during a public celebration of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru team lifting the Indian Premier League cricket trophy.
