India's approach to initiating and swiftly concluding military conflicts, exemplified by Operation Sindoor, provides valuable lessons for the world, said Chief of Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal A P Singh on Friday. Speaking at an event, he emphasized India's clear strategic goals during the operation against Pakistan from May 7 to May 10.
Air Chief Marshal Singh highlighted the crucial role of air power, notably the S-400 missile system, which left Pakistan's military in disarray. Significant damages were inflicted on Pakistan's military bases and infrastructure. The operation was marked by the political leadership granting full military freedom, an essential factor for its success.
Despite calls for prolonged military action, Singh argued that prolonging conflict would detract from India's preparedness and progress. He underscored the importance of clearly defined objectives, a factor often overlooked in ongoing global conflicts, such as the Russia-Ukraine war. In India's case, once the anti-terrorism objectives were met, the conflict was swiftly terminated.
