🛩️ Prompt Indian Air Force Action

Indian Air Force (IAF) swiftly and efficiently hit terror bases, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh delivered the message. These are part of the broader response to end terrorism in its different forms on the Indian people.

He said the Indian forces have displayed gallantry and professionalism and the operation is still in progress. Additional operations may be conducted as necessary to maintain safety and stability.

💰 Warning to the World

Rajnath Singh had also questioned the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for awarding loan to Pakistan. He called on the IMF to reconsider its position, because there is a danger that terrorist organisations could use the money, either directly or indirectly.

India is sending a message that international organizations should be cautious while assisting countries accused of promoting terrorism.

President’s Big Constitutional Step: Article 143 Invoked Credit… Jose Luis Magana/Associated Press India On Sunday, the president of India invoked Article 143, a special constitutional provision that allows the president to directly ask the Supreme Court for its advice but that has never been used.

In a significant move, President Droupadi Murmu has broke an impasse that has persisted between state governments and governors over the years.

📜 What Is Article 143?

Under Article 143 of the Indian Constitution, the President can seek opinion from the Supreme Court on any question of fact or law of public importance.

President Murmu invoked the article to seek the apex court’s opinion on the delays by some governors in giving assent to or passing the state-level bills. These [delays] have resulted in confrontation between the federal government and states, and between states and their localities, especially when they're of different political parties.

⚖️ Why This Matters

Some state governments contend that their democratic rights are thwarted when governors stymie laws passed by elected state assemblies. The president’s decision underscores the fact that this issue requires a straightforward legal answer.

Now the Supreme Court will take up the matter and provide its opinion, which could yield new rules or guideposts in the handling of such situations in the future.

📝 Conclusion

India is experiencing significant shifts and actions on both the national security and constitutional sides at the moment.

Operation Sindoor reflects India's® resolve to fight terrorism with iron resolve.

The President’s legal act proves that the country aspires to becoming an honest state with a strong democracy and ruling on the basis of law.”

What we know or don’t know about what happened (and so far the picture remains murky) is another matter, but these events illustrate how India is trying to balance the needs of its security and its constitutional values, both of which are critical to a strong and united nation.
