Asked how deep the Indian Army’s Special Forces went inside the Myanmar territory, Rathore said that “it was deep enough for the terrorists to feel safe”.

Speaking to The Indian Express, Rathore, a retired Colonel from the Army, said, “It was a much-needed decision that was taken by the Prime Minister. This decision was extremely bold in nature. And it involved our Special Forces crossing the border and going deep into another country.”
Rathore added that intelligence reports were that “there were two camps preparing another strike on India” and these two camps were geographically distant from each other. “Both camps were struck and were completely annihilated. The Special Forces returned without a single casualty,” the minister said.
Earlier, choosing [HASHTAG]#ManipurRevenge[/HASHTAG] and [HASHTAG]#56inchRocks[/HASHTAG] as hashtags in his tweets, Rathore tweeted, “A salute to Indian Army for [HASHTAG]#ManipurRevenge[/HASHTAG] strike. Massive political will displayed by our strong @PMOIndia @narendramodi @manoharparrikar.”

- Hours after the Army’s operations in Myanmar, Minister of State for Information & Broadcasting Rajyavardhan Rathore said tonight that the strikes were a message to all countries, including Pakistan, and groups harbouring “terror intent” towards India that “we will strike at a place and at a time of our choosing.”
