‘Show Me One Photo of Indian Damage’: NSA Doval Destroys Foreign Media’s Propaganda on Op Sindoor

In a blistering takedown of the international media, India’s National Security Advisor Ajit Doval on Friday exposed the hypocrisy and double standards in global reportage surrounding Operation Sindoor, cross-border military strike, and India’s high-precision that shook Pakistan’s terror ecosystem to its core.

Speaking at the 62nd Convocation of IIT Madras, Doval did not mince words. With characteristic clarity and resolve, he slammed the foreign media for parroting Pakistan’s false narrative and completely ignoring the facts on the ground.

‘You show me just one photograph- one, showing any damage inside India. Even a single broken windowpane. There is none,’ Doval said sharply. ‘Yet they ran headlines, they painted a picture, while actual images from 13 damaged Pakistani airbases tell the real story.’

Precision, Power, and a Message Across the Border

Launched in retaliation to the April 22 massacre in Pahalgam, where 26 innocent civilians were brutally gunned down, Operation Sindoor was India’s answer, not in words, but in firepower. On May 7, Indian armed forces executed a clinical strike, targeting nine terrorist camps deep inside Pakistan, bypassing border skirmishes to hit the real nerve centers of terrorism.

Not a single target was missed. Not a single civilian structure was touched. Each missile found its mark. This was India’s declaration that its tolerance for terror has limits, and its response will be swift, surgical, and unflinching.

‘We struck nowhere else. We knew who was where, and we hit only them’, Doval declared, lauding the indigenous precision strike capabilities used in the operation.

Western Media’s Silence on Terror, Noise on Lies

What drew Doval’s Strongest denunciation was the selective amnesia of global news outlets, many of whom refused to even call the April 22 killing of civilians, a terror attack. Instead, the attackers were dubbed ‘gunmen’ or ‘militants’, and narratives were carefully framed to undermine India’s right to self-defence.

But facts don’t lie. High-resolution satellite imagery, acknowledged even by The New York Times and The Washington Post, showed unmistakable damage to multiple Pakistani military installations, including Bholari airbase and the high-security Nur Khan base, located near Pakistan’s nuclear command structures.

India Hits Back

India’s security establishment has made it clear that this is a new era of strategic clarity. The days of restraint in the face of bloodshed are over. Operation Sindoor was a signal to Pakistan’s deep state, and an answer to terror groups nurtured under its wings.

‘We are capable of doing that damage, and we did. The world saw it,’ Doval emphasized, noting that India is increasingly self-reliant in military technology and won’t depend on foreign approval to protect its sovereignty.

A War of Narratives

While global media outlets peddle politically correct euphemisms, India has decided to speak and act in the language of clarity and conviction. The double standards are being called out, and the country’s new strategic posture leaves no room for ambiguity.pa

India did not start this fight, but through Operation Sindoor, it has made it unmistakably clear that it will finish it.
