In a bold and unprecedented shift in its national security doctrine, India has reportedly decided to classify any future act of terrorism against the country as an "Act of War." According to top Government of India (GoI) sources, this decisive stance comes in light of escalating tensions and recent hostile activities from across the border.

The sources confirmed that any such act will invite a full-scale retaliatory response, signaling a zero-tolerance approach moving forward. The move is being interpreted as a warning to terror sponsors and a clear message to the international community that India will no longer treat terrorism as a law-and-order issue alone, but as a direct threat to its sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Terror = War

In a significant shift in its national security policy, India has declared that any future act of terrorism will be treated as an act of war, warranting a full-scale retaliatory response. This decision follows the devastating Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, 2025, which resulted in the deaths of 26 civilians, predominantly tourists . The Indian government aims to establish clear red lines against terrorism, signaling a zero-tolerance approach towards such acts.

The announcement coincides with a recent ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan. Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced that both nations have agreed to a "full and immediate ceasefire" after a night of talks mediated by the United States . Trump commended both countries for their "common sense and great intelligence" in resolving the situation peacefully.
