Muslims in Bharuch celebrate Indian air strike on terror camps in Pakistan
In Bharuch, members of the Muslim community distributed sweets and chanted 'Indian Army Zindabad, Hindustan Zindabad' as they celebrated India's air strike on terror sites in Pakistan on Wednesday in response to the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam that killed 26 civilians.
Videos of these people holding the Tricolour and distributing sweets have gone viral on various social media platforms.
A group of Muslim youths, some wearing skull caps and some in Kafni Pajamas, reached the Jambusar bypass road in Dahej in western Bharuch on Wednesday morning hours after 'Operation Sindoor' were carried out. These youths had Indian national flags in their hands as they raised slogans hailing the country and the armed forces. They stopped vehicles plying on the main road and distributed sweets to drivers and passengers.
'We came to know about the air strike by the Indian armed forces on terror camps in Pakistan through social media and news channels, on Wednesday morning. We are very happy and wanted to celebrate,' a social activist and a district leader of Samast Muslim Samaj, Bharuch, told The Indian Express.
'The air strike on terror camps was the best reply the Indian armed forces could have given to Pakistan. The family of the 26 people killed (in the Pahalgam attack) and the surivirors will be happy. The souls of the deceased rest in peace. Justice has been served today, and we hail the operation carried out by Government of India on the terror sites in Pakistan,' he further said.
