On May 10, amid a tense military face-off with Pakistan, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met his top military commanders to review Operation Sindoor. Recognising the efforts of Army Chief Gen Upendra Dwivedi and Air Chief Marshal (ACM) Amar Preet Singh, he then turned to Navy Chief Admiral Dinesh Tripathi with a light but telling comment: “Humne aapke mooh se niwala cheen liya, aapko mauka phir milega” —”I have snatched the morsel from your mouth, but your turn will come.”
