War.

Everyone’s cool with “an eye for an eye” -

until the eye is theirs.

I still tell myself: "I won’t become the monster that made me bleed.”

But sometimes,

peace is only possible when it's backed by power.

Real power.

The kind that makes your enemies think twice.

Because that fear of what you could do is often enough to stop them from doing anything at all.

It’s not just about having the bigger stick - it’s about never needing to swing it.

Because once you swing, war begins.

And war doesn’t take sides.

It only takes.

That's why India needs unity, strength, and resolve.

And it's on us to build it.

Take a moment to thank the Indian armed forces who've shown incredible courage, working tirelessly these past few days to keep us safe.
