MP Nishikant Dubey leveled serious allegations against Pakistan, stating that Operation Sindoor (Operation Sindoor) was essential for the safety of children.

Counter-Terrorism Action
Speaking at the 80th UNGA session, Nishikant Dubey justified India's counter-terrorism actions under Operation Sindoor in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (POJK). He stated that these actions were legitimate and necessary for the protection of children and civilians.
He informed that during Operation Sindoor in May 2025, Indian armed forces conducted surgical strikes on nine terrorist bases in Pakistan and POJK, eliminating several terrorists. Nishikant Dubey stated that this was a well-thought-out and balanced response, whereas Pakistan had deliberately targeted Indian border villages, killing several civilians, including children.

Addressing the session, Nishikant Dubey stated that Pakistan is the most serious violator of the Children and Armed Conflict (CAAC) agenda. Citing the 2025 report of the UN Secretary-General, he said that Pakistan is involved in cross-border terrorism, shelling, and airstrikes.
He bly condemned Pakistan's attempt to divert the world's attention from child rights violations and cross-border terrorism. Nishikant Dubey said that several Afghan children were injured or killed in attacks carried out by the Pakistani army in areas near the Afghan border.
Context of Pahalgam Attack and Operation Sindoor
Nishikant Dubey referred to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, on April 22, in which 26 civilians were killed. He stated that the international community cannot forget the targeted and brutal attacks carried out by terrorists trained by Pakistan.
Following the Pahalgam attack, India launched Operation Sindoor in May 2025. Under this operation, the Indian Army targeted terrorist bases in Pakistan and POJK, eliminating terrorists and weakening their networks. Nishikant Dubey described this as a necessary step for the safety of children and civilians.
Advice for Pakistan to Look in the Mirror
