NEW DELHI: Revealing the reason for the timing chosen for Operation Sindoor last year, Army chief General Upendra Dwivedi has said that Indian Army deliberately delayed a planned strike to avoid disrupting ‘namaz’ at a terrorist camp.In a podcast, the Army chief said the operation involved flexible timing, but the commanders kept in mind the time for prayers. “When we were to destroy these targets, the timing was 2 o’clock, 4 o’clock, anytime. But we made sure that when the people on the other side were going through their ‘namaz’ prayer in the terrorist camp, we said this time will not touch, because ‘sabka malik ek hai’. And that’s why we chose a time when we knew that it was not,” General Dwivedi said.
