NEW DELHI, May 16: In a stern military message to Islamabad, Army Chief Gen Upendra Dwivedi on Saturday said if Pakistan continues to harbour terrorists and operate against India, then they have to \u201cdecide whether they want to be part of geography or history or not\u201d.
\nAt an interactive session hosted by \u2018Uniform Unveiled\u2019 at the Manekshaw Centre here, he was asked about how the Indian Army will respond if circumstances that led to Operation Sindoor last year comes up again.
\nThe Army chief said, \u201cIf you have heard me earlier, what I have said\u2026 that Pakistan, if it continues to harbour terrorists and operate against India, then they have to decide whether they want to be part of geography or history or not.\u201d
\nHis remarks at the event, \u2018Sena Samwad\u2019, came days after the country and the Indian military marked the first anniversary of Operation Sindoor. Gen Dwivedi\u2019s remarks, though brief carried a blunt message to Pakistan, and reiterated India\u2019s stand against terrorism.
\nOperation Sindoor was launched early on May 7 last year in retaliation to the deadly Pahalgam terror attack, with Indian forces conducting precision strikes on multiple terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu-Kashmir (PoJK).
\nPakistan later also launched offensives against India, and all subsequent counter-offensives by India were also carried out under Operation Sindoor.
\nThe military conflict between the two nuclear-armed neighbours, lasting nearly 88 hours, halted after they reached an understanding on the evening of May 10.<\/p>\n
