In his recent interview with Guido Fawkes, Indian High Commissioner to the UK Vikram Doraiswami has outlined India’s Operation Sindoor doctrine as “zero tolerance for terror, rapid move to de‑escalation.” He alleges Pakistan’s state and military sustain proxy conflict by arming radicalised non‑state actors for attacks India cannot accept. Following a brutal attack on tourists, India struck only terrorist infrastructure on the first evening, opened the hotline immediately and formally ruled out Pakistani military targets, setting a ceiling on escalation. After Pakistan’s retaliatory strikes, India replied with “greater capacity and greater accuracy” before agreeing to a ceasefire. Doraiswami says dialogue is impossible while cross‑border terror continues, framing India’s stance as surgically focused on terror networks while keeping channels to Pakistan’s military open.
