Various sporting personalities have taken to social media to voice their support for their country and 'Operation Sindoor'.
There is no turning away from Operation Sindoor, and many in the realms of sport have taken notice of the same, showcasing their support for their country.
On the intervening night of Tuesday-Wednesday, India launched a series of targeted precision strikes under 'Operation Sindoor' against terror camps in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), almost a fortnight after the Pahalgam terror attack.
Nine terrorist infrastructure sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir were targeted in the strikes. However, no Pakistani military facilities were hit, reflecting India's calibrated and non-escalatory approach.
The operation marks a significant escalation in India's counter-terror strategy following the Pahalgam attack that claimed the lives of 26 civilians, including a Nepali national.
In the midst of everything unfolding, various sporting personalities have taken to social media to voice their support for their country and 'Operation Sindoor' undertaken in the name of revenge for those whose lives were claimed in Pahalgam.

Operation Akhal in Kulgam Enters Day 9: Two Soldiers Martyred As Manhunt Against Terrorists Continue In one of the longest-running anti-terror operations in the Kashmir Valley, Operation Akhal has entered its ninth day, with elite forces locked in a relentless gun battle against terrorists hiding in the forested Akhal area of south Kashmir. Two soldiers, Lance Naik Pritpal Singh and Sepoy Harminder Singh, made the ultimate sacrifice, while eleven others have been injured since the operation began on August 1. Using drones, helicopters, and para commandos, security forces have neutralized two terrorists so far, but the mission continues with top police and Army brass on the ground, including J&K DGP Nalin Prabhat and Northern Commander Lt Gen Pratik Sharma. #kulgam #operationakhal #indianarmy #jammuandkashmir #kashmirencounter #terrorism #breakingnews #securityforces #antiterror #indianews #indiansoldiers #martyrs #kashmirupdates #encounternews #defencenews #breakingnews #trending #trendingnow #toi #bharat #toibharat #indianews 12.5K views | 1 day ago

Rahul, oppn parties acting as tools of foreign powers: BJP

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi NEW DELHI: BJP on Saturday accused Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and other opposition parties of being part of a conspiracy by anti-India forces abroad to weaken the country by defaming its armed forces and institutions. "Rahul Gandhi, Congress, and INDIA alliance parties are acting as tools of foreign powers," BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi told reporters. Speaking a day after IAF chief A P Singh shared photographs and video footage to assert that India had downed six Pakistani planes and damaged a few others on the ground, Trivedi said that Rahul, who had consistently lied about Operation Sindoor , had slipped into intriguing silence since armed forces presented the facts to the public. "The people who have often projected invaders as heroes are questioning the bravery of our armed forces during Operation Sindoor," said the Rajya Sabha MP. He said the evidence shared by the IAF chief had exposed Congress's lies. Trivedi said the leader of opposition had repeatedly been caught lying in court and to the public, making false claims about el ec tions and voter lists. "Today, EC has once again exposed one of his false claims about vote fraud by asking him to back his claims by swearing by them on affidavit," he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Here's The Price of a 1-Day Walk-in Shower In 2025 Homebuddy Learn More Undo "Rahul Gandhi, the 'perpetual youth' of Indian politics and a leader who only speaks nonsense, has degraded the post of leader of opposition. He has been continuously demeaning all constitutional institutions. Now he is trying to vent his frustration of losing power by making unnecessary, baseless, and false allegations against EC," he added. Trivedi dismissed Rahul's allegation that 1 lakh fraudulent voters took part in the general elections to Bangalore Central seat, asking, "Where did he get the number '1 lakh' if EC didn't provide the data?" The spokesperson also claimed Rahul had appealed to foreign powers to interfere in India's democracy.
