Temples, gurdwaras and churches were targeted. The action taken by the Indian forces in response brought the Pakistani army to its knees,\u201d Singh said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He said that India\u2019s response remained focused on neutralising terrorist hideouts. He stated that the Indian forces took full care to avoid civilian casualties in their retaliatory operations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur soldiers made sure that while punishing the perpetrators, innocent lives were not affected,\u201d Singh said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He also added that the intent was to hit only the locations where terrorist activities were being supported and planned.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Defence Minister said that India\u2019s operations were limited to those directly involved in violence. He said the action sent a clear message regarding India\u2019s policy on cross-border terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He said the Indian armed forces acted with full responsibility to secure national interests and ensure the safety of Indian citizens\u2014(KNO)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Removed infected parts, ensured minimal impact beyond intended areas; Struck at root of terrorism with unmatched precision &nbsp; Pak&rsquo;s terror infrastructure decimated through disciplined, targeted military action; Our soldiers punished perpetrators, left innocents untouched &nbsp; Srinagar, May 20 (KNO): Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday said the Indian armed forces &ldquo;operated like expert surgeons&rdquo; during [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":82916,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-88425","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-frontpage"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88425","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=88425"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88425\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":88426,"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88425\/revisions\/88426"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/82916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=88425"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=88425"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.khushalekashmir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=88425"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
