India-Pakistan News Live: Pakistan always does such cowardly acts, says Jitan Ram Manjhi
On Pakistan targeting civilian areas in India, Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi says, "Pakistan always does such cowardly acts. They are the ones who started all this... Our Army and PM Narendra Modi are still dealing with them patiently. We have still not attacked their civilian areas... But there is a limit to tolerance... I believe that, considering the current situation, Pakistan should be taught the final lesson... The people who are suggesting a discussion (world leaders calling for de-escalation), I don't understand them. They should tell this to Pakistan. We are only acting in retaliation and trying to protect ourselves. If these people are our friends, then they should support us..."
Indian government's 'Operation Sindoor' is the right step and I support it. I request that the government end this operation only after reaching a logical conclusion. We should not stop under the pressure of any external forces. I have been studying terrorism for over 30 years, and I can assure you that Pakistan will not stop. If we call off the 'Operation Sindoor' now, Pakistan will again launch terror attacks within three months. Hence, it should not stop.

It is most unfortunate...how can you use words like militants and gunmen? These are the people who came into India, and they only shot people who were not Muslims.

India Pakistan Live: Govt tells media channels not to use civil defence sirens sounds in programmes
The government on Saturday advised all media channels to refrain from using civil defence air raid sirens sounds in their programmes other than community awareness drive.
In an advisory, the Directorate General Fire Service, Civil Defence and Home Guards said exercising the powers conferred under the Civil Defence Act, 1968, all media channels were requested to refrain from using civil defence air raids sirens sounds in their programmes other than for educating the community.
It said that the routine use of sirens may likely to reduce the sensitivity of civilians towards the air raids sirens and civilians may misunderstood it as routine matter, used by the media channels, during the actual air raids.
The advisory came amidst the heightened tension due to the ongoing India-Pakistan conflict.
