Union Home Minister Amit Shah inaugurated the new Multi-Agency Centre (MAC) at North Block.
On this occasion, the Home Minister said that 'Operation Sindhoor' is a unique symbol of Prime Minister Modi's strong political will, the accurate intelligence of our agencies, and the impeccable strike capability of our three armed forces.

Meanwhile, in a landmark achievement, the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) successfully scaled Mt. Makalu (8,485 m), the world's fifth highest peak, on April 19, marking the first-ever ascent of the peak by any Central Armed Police Force (CAPF), according to reports.

Amit Shah also congratulated the ITBP jawans for their successful expedition to Mount Makalu, the world's fifth-highest peak situated on the China-Nepal border. In his tweet, Amit Shah said, Congratulations to the ITBP jawans on their stellar success in summiting Mount Makalu, the fifth highest peak in the world."

He added, "Braving extreme weather conditions, the ITBP personnel unfurled the Tiranga at the peak of the mountain and carried out a cleanliness drive inspired by PM Shri @narendramodi Ji's Swacch Bharat Abhiyan and removed 150 kg of garbage."

The summit was part of ITBP's historic International Mountaineering Expedition to Mt. Makalu and Mt. Annapurna (8,091 m), flagged off from ITBP Headquarters in New Delhi on March 21.

This dual-peak mission, a first in the force's history, showcased ITBP's enduring legacy in high-altitude operations. Led by Deputy Commandant Anoop Kumar Negi, with Deputy Commandant Nihas Suresh as deputy leader, the 12-member expedition team was split into two groups of six.
