Operation Sindoor: Pahalgam attack victim’s father hails Indian action against Pakistan

Rajesh Narwal, the father of Indian Navy officer Lt Vinay Narwal who was killed in the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, hailed India’s action on Wednesday after the air force carried out precision airstrikes at multiple terror sites in Pakistan in the wee hours of the day.

Speaking with reporters at his residence, Narwal said, “Over the past few days, whenever the media asked me what I want from the Indian government, I told them that I trust them, and that they are doing their job.”

“Today is the day when the work has been executed. There is no doubt that the families who lost their loved ones cannot get them back, but we wanted such an action to send a larger message. I think they (Pakistan) will never forget this action,” the father said.

Lt Narwal was shot dead in the Balsaran meadow in front of his wife Himanshi while they were on vacation, just six days after their marriage.

The father also appreciated the title of the Indian operation – ‘Sindoor’ – and said that the 26 women who lost their husbands/partners will definitely get solace with this.
