Indian cricketing legend Sachin Tendulkar has supported India’s latest action against terrorist outfits based in Pakistan. On April 22, 26 people lost their lives in the Pahalgam terrorist attack. The victims went to the valley as tourists with their family but their campaign turned horrendous as they lost their precious lives to terrorists. Following the incident, Indian citizens were demanding their government to take stiff action against the perpetrators and deliver justice to the families. After 14 days of the gruesome event, India launched ‘Operation Sindoor’ and took revenge with a strike on terrorist organisations based in Pakistan. In the morning of May 7, India’s Ministry of Defence revealed the details of the incident.
Following India’s admission of the strike, former Indian opener Sachin Tendulkar took to X and supported the country’s stern resolve against terrorism. The 52-year-old wrote, “Fearless in unity. Boundless in strength. India’s shield is her people. There’s no room for terrorism in this world. We’re ONE TEAM! Jai Hind. #OperationSindoor”.
