Operation Sindoor: India's decisive victory — A moral imperative and beacon of global humanity
Tehseen Poonawalla is a Congress ideologue, lawyer, political analyst, social activist, life coach and a flourishing entrepreneur. He is also an avid reader of law, mythology, politics, and biographies of leaders, game-changers and histories of nations. LESS ... MORE In the relentless saga of India's fight against the insidious scourge of terrorism, Operation Sindoor stands tall—not merely as a military campaign but as a monumental testament to resilience, justice, and the unyielding spirit of humanity. This operation is a clarion call, echoing far beyond South Asia's borders, signifying India's unwavering resolve to uproot terror's poisonous roots nurtured on Pakistani soil. The harrowing attack in Pahalgam was a wound inflicted on the very soul of our nation — vibrant lives extinguished in a brutal instant, dreams shattered, families plunged into immeasurable grief. This was not just an isolated act of violence; it was the tragic crescendo of years of calculated, state-sponsored terror, fuelled by the venomous rhetoric of Pakistan's army chief, Asim Munir—recently elevated to Field Marshal amid global controversy. His incendiary words were not mere provocation; they were a deliberate assault on India's peace and social fabric, designed to sow fear and chaos. But India's response was nothing short of historic. Operation Sindoor was a masterclass in precision, courage, and strategic brilliance. Orchestrated with meticulous care by our intelligence and armed forces, it systematically dismantled terror networks that had long thrived with impunity. The reverberations of this operation shook Islamabad to its core, culminating in an extraordinary plea from Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) to India for a ceasefire—a tacit admission of India's overwhelming strength and Pakistan's vulnerability. Yet, this operation transcends bilateral conflict. It is a beacon of hope for global humanity. Terrorism, bred and nurtured within Pakistan's borders, is a malignant force threatening peace worldwide — from the crowded streets of Europe to the heart of America. By decisively targeting these terror hubs, India has not only safeguarded its own citizens but has taken a stand for international security and justice. In doing so, India asserts itself as a global sentinel against terror, defending humanity's most sacred right: the right to live free from fear and violence. The emotional gravity of this victory is profound. Every life lost in Pahalgam, every innocent soul taken, is a solemn call to action — a vow from millions of Indians to eradicate the darkness of hatred and violence. Operation Sindoor carries the weight of collective grief, yet it also embodies hope — hope for a future where children play without fear and communities thrive in peace. It sends a powerful, unyielding message: terrorism will be met with relentless courage, justice, and an indomitable will. This is India's defining hour — a righteous blow against tyranny and a luminous beacon for humanity worldwide. The global community must awaken to the significance of Operation Sindoor. This was not aggression but a necessary act of self-defence against a clear and present danger. The era of unchecked state-sponsored terrorism is over. India's decisive action demands global solidarity, unequivocal condemnation of terror sponsorship, and accountability for those who unleash destruction. Let Operation Sindoor be a rallying cry — a call for unity, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to confront terror wherever it lurks. In this battle against hatred and violence, India does not stand alone but speaks for every mother, every child, and every community yearning for a world where the sanctity of life is inviolable. This is not just a military campaign; Operation Sindoor is a moral victory — a profound service to humanity and a resounding testament to India's unshakable commitment to peace, justice, and the protection of innocent lives. The plea from Pakistan's DGMO for a ceasefire only underscores the magnitude of India's triumph and signals a transformative shift in regional security. Today, India stands tall — victorious, resolute, and humane — lighting the way toward a safer, more just world.

Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Criticism of the 'more to lose' argument Operation Sindoor seen as a warning Support for armed forces Political commentator Tehseen Poonawalla backed India's Operation Sindoor and said the country must respond firmly to provocation. He rejected the idea that India should avoid confrontation with Pakistan to protect its economic position or global image. In a tweet, he said silence in the face of aggression is not wisdom but responded to a commonly used analogy that compares Pakistan to a street thug and India to a mansion owner who avoids conflict to avoid damage. He questioned what a person would do if the so-called thug entered their house, harmed their family, and abused their loved ones. He said staying silent in such a situation is not an act of maturity, but an act of surrender."Those who say India has "more to lose" by confronting Pakistan, picturing Pakistan as a street thug and India as a mansion owner who avoids brawls—listen up! What happens when that thug barges into YOUR home? Teases your wife, hurts your child, abuses your family—and you stand there, silent, because "you have more to lose"? Sorry, that's not wisdom; that's cowardice!" Poonawala said."An alpha protects his family, his honor, his nation—no matter the cost. India's Operation Sindoor wasn't just a strike; it was a ROAR! A message to every thug: mess with Bharat, and you'll pay," he described Operation Sindoor as more than a strike. He called it a roar—a warning to anyone who tries to harm India.
