An impressive 'Tiranga rally' was taken out on the arterial roads of Tirupati on Sunday (May 25) to commemorate the success of the Operation Sindhoor taken up by the Indian government in retaliation to the killing of innocent tourists at Pahalgam.

The event, which was organised by REACH Global Foundation, began at Jyotirao Phule Circle and ended at Nalugukalla Mandapam junction in the city. The foundation's organiser and veteran medical professional Ramesh Nath Lingutla said the retaliatory act was necessitated by the terrorists' misadventure with the tacit support of Pakistan government. Tirupati MLA Arani Srinivasulu called upon the youth to fill their hearts with patriotism and strive tirelessly for the nation's security. He likened Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu and Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan to 'Trimurti' in protecting the country from enemies outside as well as within, to ensure the safety of the citizens. The rally was not just about shouting of patriotic slogans, but had artistes perform 'Chekka Bhajana', 'Kolatam' etc., while traditional drum beating by instrumentalists, which added to the grandeur of the event. Andhra Pradesh Yadava Welfare Corporation Chairman G. Narasimha Yadav and the city's Deputy Mayor R.C. Munikrishna joined the rally at NTR Circle and walked till the end.
