Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said Indian technology and the ‘Made in India’ initiative were behind the success of Operation Sindoor which brought Pakistan to its knees in a few hours. The world for the first time saw the new face of India during Operation Sindoor when it demonstrated its ability in destroying the terror hubs deep inside Pakistan, he said. He said that there was a major role of Bengaluru and its youth in Operation Sindoor.

The PM underlined that Bengaluru is identified with big cities of the world. Noting that India has to not only compete globally, but also has to lead, he said, “We will progress only when our cities are smart, fast and efficient.” In this context, he said his government's emphasis has been on completing modern infrastructure. “Urban planning and urban infrastructure are much needed in the 21st century and we have to make cities like Bengaluru future ready,” the PM said.
