NSA Ajit Doval briefs counterparts on Operation Sindoor: 'India has no intent to escalate tensions but...'

New Delhi:

Soon after the focused strikes on terrorists and terrorist infrastructure at 9 sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) as part of Operation Sindoor, NSA Ajit Doval on Wednesday spoke with NSAs of several countries, including US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, UK NSA Jonathan Powell, Saudi NSA Musaid Al Aiban, UAE NSA Sheikh Tahnoon, Secretary General of NSC of UAE Ali Al Shamsi and NSA of Japan Masataka Okano. Apart from this, contact was also established with Russian NSA Sergei Shoigu, Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the PRC Wang Yi and Diplomatic Adviser to French President Emmanuel Bonne.

During the telephonic conversation, the NSA briefed his counterparts on actions taken and method of execution, which was measured as non-escalatory and restrained. He emphasised that India had no intent to escalate but was well prepared to retaliate resolutely should Pakistan decide to escalate. The NSA said he will be in touch with his counterparts in the days ahead.

Ajit Doval also told his counterparts in various countries that India has no intent to escalate tensions but is prepared to "retaliate resolutely" if Pakistan does so. He also established contact with Russia and France.

India's action came two weeks after the Pahalgam terror attack triggered widespread outrage in India and abroad.

"These steps come in the wake of the barbaric Pahalgam terrorist attack in which 25 Indians and one Nepali citizen were murdered," the Indian Army said in the statement.

"We are living up to the commitment that those responsible for this attack will be held accountable," it said.

The top military brass of India was closely monitoring the operation, people familiar with the matter said.
