The attack was avenged through &#8216;Operation Sindoor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cWe gave only a limited response, yet Pakistan treated the strike on the terrorists as an attack on itself. The moment the Pakistani Army came into action, BSF jawans gave them a befitting and resounding reply.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWithin just a few days, due to the valour and bravery of the BSF, Army, and Indian Airforce, Pakistan was forced to announce a unilateral ceasefire. A clear message has gone out to the entire world that no one should dare tamper with India&#8217;s borders or challenge India&#8217;s security forces otherwise they will have to face the consequences,\u201d Shah added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring Operation Sindoor our forces destroyed nine key locations of Jaish-e-Mohammed, Hizbul Mujahideen, and Lashkar-e-Taiba, including their headquarters, training camps, and launch pads,\u201d he said, adding, \u201cThe objective of this operation was the complete elimination of terrorism, the safety of our citizens, and the security of border areas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Praising BSF for its dedication, Shah said, \u201cNot just the Prime Minister and the Home Minister, but the entire nation salutes their bravery. All of us have unwavering faith in the strength and competence of BSF jawans. Country sleeps peacefully because of their unbreakable resolve to protect us,\u201d Shah said.<\/p>\n<p>The Home Minister said, \u201cTill date 2013 BSF soldiers have laid down their lives to ensure that the country&#8217;s borders remain inviolable and secure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shah said that ever since establishment of the Border Security Force (BSF) on December1, 1965, the paramilitary force has successfully scaled every pinnacle of excellence.<\/p>\n<p>He stated that among all Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), the BSF is the only force dedicated to guarding the nation on land, water, and air frontiers. \u201cWhether it is our air borders, the most inaccessible land borders, or water borders amidst countless obstacles, BSF personnel remain deployed on all three,\u201d Shah said.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the courage and skill with which BSF jawans have adapted to these diverse challenges and the harshest forces of nature to secure India\u2019s borders is truly commendable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn water, land, and sky, the BSF has always had only one goal i.e. the security of India,\u201d Shah added.<\/p>\n<p>He expressed pride that today, with the strength of 193 battalions and over 2.76 lakh personnel, the BSF is fully protecting and monitoring the entire 2,279 km border with Pakistan and the 4,096 km border with Bangladesh.<\/p>\n<p>He also said that the coming year will be fully dedicated to the complete modernization of the BSF, and the year after that will be entirely devoted to the welfare of our brave jawans and their families.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring this period, the BSF and the Ministry of Home Affairs will launch numerous schemes and take concrete steps toward the welfare of the personnel and their families,\u201d Shah said.<\/p>\n<p>He said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Ministry of Home Affairs has resolved to transform the BSF into the world\u2019s most modern and most capable border security force within the next five years.<\/p>\n<p>Shah added that many new initiatives will be rolled out in the coming days. \u201cI assure the families of jawans posted in difficult conditions along the borders that in PM Modi\u2019s rule no stone will be left unturned for their welfare,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>HAILS BSF FOR PLAYING VITAL ROLE IN ANTI-NARCOTICS OPERATIONS<\/p>\n<p>He said that the BSF has launched numerous operations against the infiltration of narcotics into the country and achieved tremendous success.<\/p>\n<p>The Union Home Minister said that BSF has seized more than 18,000 kilograms of drugs so far in 2025\u2014this is a historic achievement.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the BSF remains fully engaged in preventing infiltration along all our borders. Preventing infiltration is not only essential for the country\u2019s security but also crucial to protect our democratic system from being polluted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the coming days, we are bringing the new revolutionary concept of \u2018e-Border Security\u2019. The BSF has the biggest role in implementing this concept on the ground, and the initial initiative has also been taken by the BSF itself. Every possible effort will be made to fully roll it out on the ground within the next one year, and I am fully confident that within the next five years, the entire land border of our country will be securely covered under this e-security shield,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>ONLY INDIANS WILL DECIDE WHO WILL BECOME CM AND PM<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cUnfortunately, some political parties are actively trying to weaken the \u2018Ghuspaithiya Hataao\u2019 campaign. These parties are opposing the voter list purification process being carried out by the Election Commission under the SIR (Special Intensive Revision) exercise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He declared with firm resolve that it is our pledge that we will identify and deport every single infiltrator from this country, one by one.<\/p>\n<p>The Home Minister said that in this country, only Indian citizens will decide who the Chief Minister of any state becomes or who becomes the Prime Minister of India. No infiltrator has the right to pollute our democratic system or influence our democratic decisions.<\/p>\n<p>The Union Home Minister said that in the past few years, we have rapidly strengthened and made the border fencing impenetrable. Most of the trials related to fencing have now been completed.
