NEW DELHI: The Bharatiya Janata Party ( BJP ) on Tuesday hit out at Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann 's remark related to Operation Sindoor , calling his statement "disgraceful."
"Bhagwant Mann just mocked Operation Sindoor , asking: 'Will you wear sindoor in Modi’s name? Is this One Nation, One Husband? This isn’t satire. This is vulgarity dressed as leadership ," BJP's Chandigarh unit said in a post on X.
"Let’s be clear: Operation Sindoor was launched after Hindu women were targeted by terrorists, identified by their sindoor. It was about justice for the innocent, not a joke," the BJP said.
The post further targeted Punjab CM, saying, "He cannot grasp the meaning of sindoor — A symbol of love, sacrifice, and strength for every Indian woman. Bhagwant Mann didn’t insult BJP. He insulted every widow of a soldier, every mother of a martyr, every woman of Bharat."
Earlier, Punjab CM Mann questioned the BJP's initiative of distributing Sindoor door to door, saying, "Did you not see the kind of joke they made out of Sindoor? Without any reason, they are going to every house and saying, take sindoor in Modi's name. When they come to yours, will you apply it? What is this? One nation, one husband scheme?"
Operation Sindoor was launched on May 7 as a military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack by Pakistan-sponsored terrorists, which claimed 26 lives. Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, resulting in the deaths of over 100 terrorists affiliated with groups such as Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Hizbul Mujahideen.
Following India’s strike, Pakistan retaliated with shelling across the Line of Control and Jammu and Kashmir, along with attempted drone attacks along the border.After Pakistan's incursion, India escalated its response, targeting and destroying key Pakistani military and air infrastructure, including the Nur Khan Airbase in Rawalpindi and the Rahim Yar Khan airbase. Both countries reached an understanding to end hostilities on May 10.
