Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) General Anil Chauhan on Tuesday made a scathing remark against Pakistan while clarifying that why Islamabad urged for cessation of hostilities. He also said that results are important and drew a cricket analogy to explain his stand. During a special lecture on ‘Future Wars and Warfare’ at Savitribai Phule University in Pune, Maharashtra, CDS Chauhan said, “When I was asked about losses on our side, I said these are not important. The results and how you act are important. It would not be very correct to talk about losses…,” he said.
CDS Chuahan stated that Operation Sindoor is not over yet; there is a cessation of hostilities temporarily.
“Operation Sindoor is not over as yet. It continues. It’s a temporary cessation of hostilities. There is a need to keep our guard up. As far as the Pakistani side is concerned, I can make two guesses. One, that they were losing things faster at a very long distance, and they thought that if this continued for some more time, they were likely to lose more, and hence they picked up the telephone…” the CDS added.
