Seven years ago, on a fateful night of September 28, 2016, India executed one of its most daring and precise military operations—the surgical strike. This audacious mission sent a clear message to the world that India would not tolerate acts of terrorism emanating from across its borders. As we mark the seventh anniversary of this historic event, it`s worth reflecting on how the surgical strike unfolded and its long-term consequences for India.
The surgical strike was a coordinated and planned operation carried out by India`s elite special forces in response to the Uri terror attack, where 19 Indian soldiers lost their lives. The mission aimed to neutralize terrorist launch pads along the Line of Control (LoC) in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
