Victory is in the mind, Army chief General Upendra Dwivedi underlined, while explaining Pakistan’s narrative management system during Operation Sindoor, which managed to convince its citizens that they had won in the recent conflict.

The Rajasthan unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) expelled state spokesperson Krishna Kumar Janu for six years, citing his public criticism of the party’s “treatment” of former governor Satya Pal Malik and ex-vice president Jagdeep Dhankhar.

India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 as a decisive military response to the deadly April 22 Pahalgam terror attack.
