JAMMU: The Tiranga, our national flag, is not just a piece of cloth but a symbol of India’s pride, unity, and sovereignty. It represents the values, culture, and traditions of a nation where people of diverse religions and backgrounds coexist with harmony. Every Indian holds deep respect for the Tiranga, as it signifies the sacrifices made by countless brave souls for the country’s freedom and security.

This was stated by Rajni Sethi, Spokesperson, J&K BJP. Rajni Sethi said, “On 22nd April 2025, India witnessed a tragic terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, where 26 innocent tourists lost their lives. This inhumane act of terror shook the entire nation. In response to this heinous crime, the Indian government decided to give a befitting reply to the terrorist organizations operating from across the border in Pakistan. With determination and grit, the Indian Army launched Operation Sindoor, aimed at destroying terrorist camps and eliminating threats to national security”.

The operation achieved remarkable success. The Indian Army demolished nine terrorist camps, caused severe damage to eleven airspaces, and neutralized over 100 terrorists. This operation showcased the unmatched courage, strategic brilliance, and dedication of our armed forces. The nation salutes the Indian Army for their tireless efforts in safeguarding the country and ensuring that the sacrifices of the victims did not go in vain.

To honor the bravery and valor of our armed forces, the people of India have come together to organize Tiranga Rallies across the country, Sethi said. “These rallies, scheduled from 13th May to 25th May 2025, are being held at various places in India, symbolizing national unity and collective strength against terrorism. Citizens from all walks of life are participating, holding the Tiranga high, expressing solidarity with the armed forces, and sending a strong message that India stands united against terrorism”, said Rajni Sethi.

The Tiranga Rally is not just an event but a movement that reflects the spirit of patriotism, respect for the armed forces, and a tribute to the martyrs. It is a reminder that every Indian is ready to stand firm for the nation’s integrity and peace. Operation Sindoor will continue until all terrorist networks are completely demolished. As responsible citizens, it is our duty to support and honor the efforts of our soldiers who risk their lives for our safety. Through this rally, we reaffirm our commitment to a united and strong India, where the Tiranga flies high with pride.
