Speaking on Operation Sindoor, retired Air Marshal N. Tiwari explained how India carefully planned precision strikes on Muridke and Bahawalpur, two major terror hubs deep inside Pakistan linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed. He said updated intelligence, accurate target mapping and avoiding civilian casualties were central to the operation. India specifically targeted leadership and administrative blocks while ensuring nearby civilian areas remained untouched during the late-night strikes.
