PM Modi: ‘No Place Left in Pakistan Where Terrorists Can Breathe in Peace’
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday issued a sharp warning to Pakistan, declaring that India will strike terrorists “even inside their homes” and no part of Pakistan is safe for terror operatives.
Speaking at Punjab’s Adampur air base, Prime Minister Modi lauded the Indian Army and Air Force for delivering a decisive blow to both terrorists and the Pakistani military supporting them. “The terrorists who were relying on the Pakistani Army — the Indian Army, the Air Force and the people of India have made them bite the dust,” PM Modi said.
He emphasized that India has demonstrated its capability and resolve, saying, “Our soldiers have shown the Pakistani military that there is no place left in Pakistan where terrorists can sit and breathe in peace.”
In a powerful message reiterating India’s offensive doctrine against cross-border terrorism, PM Modi stated, “Hum ghar mein ghuskar marenge aur bachane ka ek mauka tak nahi denge” (We will enter their homes and strike, not even giving them a chance to escape).
He warned that India’s growing military capabilities — including precision drones and advanced missiles — would continue to haunt Pakistan. “Just thinking about our drones and missiles will keep Pakistan sleepless for days,” he added.
Reaffirming India’s posture post-Pahalgam attack, Modi reiterated that Operation Sindoor — India’s large-scale retaliatory strike — is not an isolated act but a standard response model going forward.
“India’s ‘Laxman Rekha’ against terrorism is crystal clear now. If another terror attack occurs, India will give a reply – a solid reply,” he said, referencing past retaliatory strikes such as the 2016 surgical strikes and the 2019 Balakot airstrikes.
PM Modi’s comments come amid heightened tensions with Pakistan following the Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed 26 lives last month. India’s response, Operation Sindoor, targeted multiple terror infrastructure hubs in Pakistan-occupied territory.
The Prime Minister’s visit to Adampur also served to boost troop morale and assess preparedness at one of India’s strategic air bases, home to MiG-29 fighter jets.
Tuesday’s address marks a continuation of India’s assertive policy on national security. Analysts believe this posture is likely to shape future engagements with Pakistan, particularly in the run-up to national elections and as India eyes long-term strategic deterrence.
The government has signaled that it will not wait for international consensus or prolonged evidence-gathering to defend its citizens.
