| Tribute To Valor Of Armed Forces | | | Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s powerful tribute to the valor of India’s armed forces during Operation Sindoor, made while unveiling the statue of Maratha general Peshwa Bajirao at the National Defence Academy, strikes at the heart of India’s enduring ethos — the unyielding defence of Swaraj, or national sovereignty.
His remarks not only acknowledge a recent act of exemplary military resolve but also echo centuries of India’s martial heritage, from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj to the Peshwas.
Operation Sindoor, executed in the volatile border region of Jammu and Kashmir during heightened hostilities, stands as a symbol of India’s ironclad determination to protect every inch of its territory.
Shah’s designation of this operation as the “finest example” of defending Swaraj underscores the strategic and symbolic importance of the mission.
By invoking Shivaji and Bajirao, Amit Shah drew a civilizational thread connecting India’s contemporary defenders to its historic warriors. Shivaji Maharaj, the pioneer of Hindavi Swarajya, established a sovereign state in the face of overwhelming odds, while Peshwa Bajirao extended its reach far beyond Maharashtra through military brilliance and visionary leadership.
It is fitting that Bajirao’s equestrian statue was unveiled at the NDA, an academy that shapes the future military leadership of India — young men and women who will carry forward the torch of Swaraj.
In a time when sovereignty is increasingly challenged not just by external threats but also by asymmetric warfare and hybrid conflicts, the emphasis on national pride and historical memory becomes essential.
Shah’s statement that the responsibility of Swaraj now lies with 140 crore Indians is a timely reminder that national security is not the armed forces’ duty alone; it is a collective responsibility. From supporting our jawans, respecting institutions, safeguarding democratic values, to defending the unity and integrity of the nation in our own spheres, every Indian has a role to play.
Operation Sindoor should not only be remembered for its operational success but also for what it symbolizes — that India, when tested, will respond with courage, clarity, and cohesion. The operation reflects a leadership that is resolute and a military that is always ready. It shows that in today’s India, national sovereignty is non-negotiable. |
