“Operation Sindoor demonstrated India’s firm resolve that terrorism epicentres are no longer immune to justifiable punishment,” said Raksha Mantri Shri Rajnath Singh as he addressed the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (#SCO) Defence Ministers’ Meeting in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan on April 28, 2026, underlining the need to forge a unified front to tackle the “evils” of terrorism, separatism and extremism by eliminating safe havens and rejecting any political exceptions.

🔸 He asserted that the sight of state-sponsored cross-border terrorism which attacks the sovereignty of a nation must not be lost as there is no place for double standards.

🔸 Raksha Mantri emphasised that SCO should not hesitate in seeking appropriate action against those who abet, shelter and provide safe havens to terrorists.
“By tackling terrorism, separatism, and extremism without exception, we transform regional security from a challenge into a cornerstone for peace and prosperity,” he said.
