A New India
Chapter 282 - 282: Something's Cooking - II

Rao chuckled, a low, almost dangerous sound. "They understand better than anyone. These aren't amateurs, KP. They're professors, businessmen, community leaders people with influence and discretion. They've been waiting for a moment like this."

KP leaned back, exhaling deeply. "Alright. Let's see how they respond. But Rao," his voice hardened, "if even one operative fails, this entire plan falls apart."

Rao's smile widened. "They won't fail. Trust me."

-----

In a operations room in the R&AW headquarters, Rao stood over a telegraph machine.

A team of operatives surrounded him, their faces tense but focused.

Rao handed a slip of paper to the telegraph operator.

"This message," Rao said firmly, "must reach every contact in our network tonight. No delays, no mistakes."

The operator glanced at the paper, nodding. "Yes, sir. The message is ready for transmission."

The message was simple yet ominous: "Be ready. The moment approaches."

The operator began typing, each tap of the keys echoing in the silent room.

As the message was sent, it traveled across continents.

In London, Professor Ajay, a respected academic and one of R&AW's most trusted assets, was grading papers in his modest office.

The soft glow of his desk lamp illuminated his furrowed brow as he worked through the night.

Suddenly, his telephone rang, a single, deliberate ring, the signal for a coded message.

Ajay picked up the receiver, his voice steady. "Yes?"

On the other end, a calm voice said, "Be ready. The moment approaches."

Ajay's heart quickened, but his face betrayed no emotion. "Understood," he said, hanging up the phone.

He leaned back in his chair, staring at the ceiling. "It's starting," he murmured.

In New York, Vidhi Patel, a successful entrepreneur and community leader, was hosting a dinner party at her Manhattan apartment.

Laughter and conversation filled the room, the clinking of glasses punctuating the lively atmosphere.

But when her personal assistant handed her a discreet note, her demeanor shifted.

Excusing herself from the table, Vidhi stepped into her study and read the note: "Be ready. The moment approaches."

She burned the note immediately, her mind racing.

Picking up her Rolodex, she began jotting down names of trusted allies. "It's time," she whispered.

In Sydney, Raj Malhotra, a shopkeeper with ties to the local Indian community, was locking up his store when a young courier handed him an envelope.

He nodded, slipping the envelope into his pocket without opening it.

Later, in the privacy of his home, he read the message.

Raj's eyes narrowed. "Finally," he said aloud.

He grabbed a notepad and began making a list of contacts.

Back in Delhi, Rao received confirmation that the message had been sent to all operatives.

He walked into KP Singh's office, his expression one of quiet satisfaction.

"It's done," Rao said simply.

KP looked up from his desk, his eyes narrowing. "And the responses?"

"They're preparing," Rao replied. "Every one of them understands the gravity of this. They know what's at stake."

KP leaned back, exhaling deeply. "Good. Because if this works, it'll be the most significant operation we've ever undertaken."

Rao's smile returned, a shadow of confidence dancing in his eyes. "It will work, KP. The network is strong, the people are committed, and the plan is flawless."

KP shook his head, a faint smile playing on his lips. "You're too confident for your own good, Rao. But let's hope you're right."

Rao stood, his tone serious. "Confidence isn't arrogance, KP. It's experience. And experience tells me that when the time comes, we'll be ready."

As the hours passed, the ripple effects of Rao's message began to take shape.

Across continents, operatives moved discreetly, their actions untraceable yet deliberate.

In London, Ajay made quiet calls to trusted colleagues.

In New York, Vidhi met with community leaders under the guise of casual dinners.

In Sydney, Raj organized small gatherings, framing them as cultural events.

Each operative understood the importance of discretion.

They were the silent architects of a plan that could reshape India's standing in the world.

And though they didn't yet know the full extent of Rohan's vision, they trusted the man who had inspired an entire nation to rise.

In the early hours of the morning, Rohan sat in his office, a rare moment of solitude enveloping him.

Neeraj entered quietly, holding a cup of tea.

"Sir," Neeraj said, setting the cup down on the desk, "everything is in motion."

Rohan nodded, his gaze distant. "Good. This is just the beginning. Let them prepare, let them watch. When the moment comes, we'll show the world what India is capable of."
