'Important to place address in context': Centre on Rajnath Singh's Op Sindoor deaths remark
The Defence Ministry has refuted claims that Defence Minister Rajnath Singh misled Parliament regarding casualties in Operation Sindoor. The ministry clarified that the minister's July 2025 address specifically countered a false narrative about Indian pilots being lost, not about soldiers' sacrifices. This statement follows the recent release of six soldiers' names killed during the May 2025 operation against Pakistan-backed terrorists.
