Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi on Friday revealed that the war against Pakistan did not end on May 10; however, he did not provide details. While speaking at a book launch event, Gen Dwivedi reiterated that the army was given "full freedom" by the government, adding that the army carried out systematic attacks against the terrorists. Gen Dwivedi released the book 'Operation Sindoor: The Untold Story of India's Deep Strikes Inside Pakistan,' which is written by ex-Army officer and author Lt Gen KJS Dhillon (retd) on the detailing of Operation Sindoor against the terror outfits.
While speaking at an event held at the Manekshaw Centre, Gen Dwivedi informed that the war continued for a long time, adding that so many decisions were taken, which was difficult for him to disclose. "You may be thinking that on May 10, the war finished; no, because it continued for a long time, because so many decisions were to be taken, and beyond that, of course, it will be difficult for me to share here," the Army chief stated.

Gen Dwivedi further appreciated the author by stating that the book reveals some "unheard" and important details about Operation Sindoor. "And, what is rightly brought out, as far as the Line of Control battle is concerned, we got so much used to this kind of a battle that we don't realise the relevance, the emotions, the losses, the gains and the challenges which are there," Gen Dwivedi stated.
"The book is factful and it's transcending from the supra-strategic to the tactical, it's very difficult. In one small book, covering all these aspects, it's a real challenge. But, he's been able to put everything together," the Army chief added.
The Indian Army launched Operation Sindoor against the terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir days after the Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 tourists were killed.
