NEW DELHI, MAY 13
A day after sending a stern warning to Pakistan over its N-capability claims in his address to the nation on the decisive Operation Sindoor, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made an early morning visit to the Indian Air Force Station in Adampur, Jalandhar in Punjab, where he met and interacted with brave air warriors and soldiers involved in the high-stakes military action, official sources said.
A source said, “PM Modi went to the Adampur air base early morning. He was briefed by Air Force personnel and he also interacted with our brave jawans.”
Modi’s visit comes after days of intense conflict between India and Pakistan following Indian strikes in terror sites in the neighbouring country on May 7 under Operation Sindoor.
Incidentally, it was claimed to have been destroyed by Pakistan during the attack on May 9 and May 10 following Operation Sindoor. By visiting Adampur’s air base, PM Modi rubbished the claims and sent out a strong message to our neighbouring country. Soon after his visit, he took to his X handle to share photos and hailed the “brave” air warriors and soldiers. Adampur is India’s second-largest airbase, which played a key role during the attack.
Taking to his X handle, PM Modi shared a series of photos along with a heartfelt note calling the experience of meeting the soldiers “special”. In the images, he can be seen encouraging the soldiers and happily talking to them. “Earlier this morning, I went to AFS Adampur and met our brave air warriors and soldiers. It was a very special experience to be with those who epitomise courage, determination and fearlessness. India is eternally grateful to our armed forces for everything they do for our nation,” PM Modi posted on X.
Despite the ceasefire, the Indian Air Force, Navy, Border Security Force and India’s paramilitary forces are constantly on alert.
