In a rare and powerful move, the Indian Army has released a special booklet featuring photographs from Operation Sindoor, shedding light on the intense coordination among the top military brass during the May 7 retaliatory strikes on terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK).
Two fresh photographs in the booklet depict the collective presence of Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi, Navy Chief Admiral DK Tripathi, and Air Force Chief Air Chief Marshal AP Singh within the military’s ‘Operations Room.’ An Army senior officer is also present among them, all keeping a tab on live inputs as the operation was being carried out.

Operation Sindoor Launched at 1:05 AM with Precision Strikes
One of the photos, taken at 1:05 am, shows General Dwivedi and the top officer closely studying a screen. They were analyzing drone video feeds, satellite images, and taking real-time data feeds as Indian fighter planes, SCALP cruise missiles, and drones bombed nine high-value terror targets along the border, sources said.
The attacks were not only rapid but also ruinous in effect. More than 140 terrorists were said to have been killed in the precision-guided strike, a major setback for the terror infrastructure based across the Line of Control.
A Symbol of Inter-Services Coordination
These photographs perform a two-way function: to record a historic military action and to deliver an unmistakable message regarding the smooth coordination between the Army, Navy, and Air Force in the defense of the country. Having all three chiefs at one time symbolizes India’s united military reaction at its readiness to execute when provoked.
While the government has been strategic in its vagueness about much of the operational nitty-gritty, publication of these photographs of Operation Sindoor is an instant of transparency and pride, highlighting not just operational preparedness but also national determination.
