Claim
Operation Sindoor is on hold; it has not ended.
“ऑपरेशन सिंदूर होल्ड पर है। खत्म नहीं हुआ है।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
The Indian government's consistent official position, stated by PM Modi ('paused, not over', May 13, 2025) and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh in Parliament, is that Operation Sindoor was only halted/on hold and not ended, with India warning of a stronger response to any further provocation. The anchor's claim on 2026-07-01 accurately restates this well-documented government line.
