Jalandhar, May 13: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on Tuesday, paid a visit to the Indian Air Force (IAF)’s Adampur base and interacted with air warriors and soldiers. He saluted their courage and lauded their service to the motherland.
Addressing the country’s braves, PM Modi spoke about the power of ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ slogan, explaining how it fills the enemies’ heart with fear. “‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ is not just a slogan — it is the solemn oath of every soldier ready to lay down their life for the nation. It is the voice of every citizen who wishes to live and serve for their motherland. When our armed forces chant ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’, the enemy trembles with fear,” the Prime Minister said, eliciting loud cheers from the gathering.
He added that every strike on India’s enemy firms up nation’s resolve to take on the rogue players, with sound of ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ echoing and reverberating throughout the country. “When India’s soldiers chant the victory of Mother India, the enemy’s heart trembles. When our drones demolish the walls of the enemy’s fortress, when our missiles reach their target with a whoosh, the enemy hears — Victory to Mother India,” PM Modi said.
He also added, “When our drones destroy the enemy, when our missiles strike with precision — the enemy hears only one thing: Bharat Mata Ki Jai. When our armed forces defy the threat of nuclear blackmail, from the ground to the skies, the echoes of Bharat Mata Ki Jai resound.” The Prime Minister thanked the soldiers and bravehearts for making the nation and every countrymen proud, adding that they have created history.
“Even decades from now, when the courage of India is remembered, your chapter will be the most celebrated. You will inspire generations to come. I salute the brave jawans of the Air Force, Navy, Army, and the BSF. Because of your unmatched valour, Operation Sindoor now echoes everywhere,” he said.
PM Modi added that it was because of the valour of Armed Forces that the echo of Operation Sindoor was being heard in every corner today. “Throughout this entire operation, every Indian stood by your side. The prayers of every Indian were with all of you. Today, every citizen is grateful to their soldiers and their families, indebted to them,” he said.
Sharing his experience on X, PM Modi wrote, “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.”
Adampur Airbase was among the targets of Pakistan’s retaliatory attempt during the night of May 9 and 10, following India’s strike on terrorist infrastructure across the border. Pakistani drones and missiles were intercepted and neutralised by India’s air defence systems, showcasing the preparedness and effectiveness of the Indian armed forces.
The visit also coincided with PM Modi’s recent address to the nation where he commended the armed forces for the execution of ‘Operation Sindoor’, stating that it had achieved its objectives with precision and resolve. “I salute the armed forces, Intelligence agencies and scientists for their grit that helped ‘Operation Sindoor’ achieve its objective,” the Prime Minister said.
Reaffirming India’s new doctrine in its fight against terrorism, PM Modi had said that ‘Operation Sindoor’ was dedicated to the nation’s collective spirit, particularly to the women of India, whose safety and honour were at the heart of the mission.
He underlined that the operation had sent a clear message to terrorist organisations and their backers — that any attack on India or its citizens would be met with decisive and powerful retribution. “The world has seen India’s capability and it is clear terrorists will no longer be spared,” he asserted.
The Prime Minister stressed that ‘Operation Sindoor’ marked a new and unwavering chapter in India’s counter-terrorism strategy — one that is relentless, precise, and uncompromising. He emphasised that India’s military carried out highly targeted strikes on terrorist hideouts in Pakistan, reinforcing the country’s resolve to safeguard its citizens and national values.
