New Delhi: The National Council for Education Research and Training (NCERT) has introduced two special modules on Operation Sindoor, describing the military operation, which hit the terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan -occupied Kashmir, “a victory of bravery, strategy and innovation”.
The module stated that on April 22, the Pahgam terror attack was killed by “direct orders” by “Pakistan’s military and political leadership”, stating how the operation was planned. He also showed maps of target sites and destroyed Pakistani drones, and made references to India’s air defense systems, including the S -400, which prevent and neutralize enemy aircraft and drones.
The module titled “Operation Sindoor – A Saga of Velor” is for preparation and mid stages (class 3 to 8), while “Operation Sindoor – A Mission of Honor and Bravery” is for students on the secondary platform (classes 9 to 12).
NCERT modules are complementary resources in English and Hindi that cover contemporary and culturally important subjects. They are separate short publications on specific subjects that are not part of textbooks, but are taught through projects, posters, discussions and debates.
India launched Operation Sindor on 7 May, targeted the terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and with long distance weapons in vengeance for the Pahgam terror attack. It triggers four days of enmity that ended after both sides, reaching an understanding on May 10 to end military functions.
For the secondary platform, the module said that the country reacted “in a very united manner” after the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. “Candlelite marchs were held from across the country. Muslim communities in Hyderabad, Lucknow and Bhopal condemned the attack and openly condemned the attack. In Kashmir, shopkeepers closed their shops in protest. The villages near the border demanded strong action and supported the armed forces.”
It states that the local population in Kashmir “stood against terrorists and spoke and breaks the stereotypes and shows the real voice of peace-loving people.”
The modules cite India’s strong military reactions-from the wars of 1947, 1965, 1971 and 1999 to the Jayash-E-Mohammed, E-Mohammad, corpse-E-Tab, after the Pahgam attack after the Balakot strike and Operation Sindoor after the Balakot Strike and Operation Sindoor, as a decisive step against terrorism supported by Jayash-E-Mohammed, E-E-Tab.
In June, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh said that there was a natural progress of Operation Sindoor 2016 surgical strikes and the 2019 Balakot airstrikes in Pakistan, and it was organized in such a way that Islamabad forced to ask for a ceasefire, which resolved the determination against India’s terror.
Both modules begin with the quotes of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In one, he described Operation Sindoor as “the confluence of India’s policy, intentions and decisive capacity”. In the module for the secondary phase, PM Modi talked about how Indian forces attacked terrorist bases and their training centers in Pakistan with accuracy. “Terrorists never thought that India can take such a big decision. But when the country is united, the nation is concluded with the spirit of the nation and the national interest is paramount, then strong decisions are taken and the results are achieved.”
Former Northern Army Commander Lieutenant General DS Hooda (RTD) said, “It is good that students from an early age, learn what the army has done – its achievements and it has responded to the challenges that we face.
