Rajnath Singh says if Navy had joined Operation Sindoor, Pak could have been split into four parts

During his visit onboard INS Vikrant, India’s first indigenous aircraft carrier, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh delivered a strong message to Pakistan. He highlighted the unmatched strength of the Indian Navy and stated that had it participated in combat during Operation Sindoor, the outcome for Pakistan would have been far more devastating. Drawing parallels with the 1971 war, Singh noted that the Navy’s involvement at the time led to Pakistan being split into two parts. "If the Navy had acted in Operation Sindoor, Pakistan might have been divided into four parts," he asserted. His remarks underscored India’s maritime strength and strategic military readiness.
