Govt rebuts 'first recognition' reports on Operation Sindoor martyrs

The government has refuted claims that six soldiers killed in Operation Sindoor were only recently officially recognised.

Reports suggesting this was the first acknowledgement are incorrect, and the government urged responsible reporting to avoid distressing families.
