Public opinion is highly skeptical and critical of the Indian government's recent claims regarding Operation Sindoor, with many expressing distrust in the transparency and credibility of military announcements made by the Air Force Chief. While some maintain nationalist pride in India's military, pervasive ridicule and concerns about potential escalation and civilian safety dominate the conversation. The overall sentiment reflects a mixture of disappointment in government communication and a desire for more responsible military engagement.

Yup completely unnecessary. Whenever an attack happens just shut ur mouth and cry and let the family of the people who died mourn and then sit quite and let another attack happen and repeat .

These are all Paxtani bots. The ISPR has been hard at work with spreading such discontent and misinformation in Indian SM spaces since we bonked them to hell in Operation Sindoor.

GloryofthePast

the fun part is when all the political parties, even the most critical of the Government and left leaning like DMK, NCPSP, Cong, TMC, SSUBT, SP, AAP have had legislators going along with elected government representatives &amp; officials to various countries across continents to stand united with our Government &amp; Army and explain the Operation, their deluded voters or even habitually criticizing intellectuals have the audacity to hate and keep hating everything the Government does is sickening. I myself am a fence sitter but going against this Operation is clearly Anti-National.

Although its not in good taste at all to compare number of casualties..if india strikes at terrorists and pakistan keeps ordinary citizens there, isn't that on them?

Icy_Position_

Gaandivaad is the best policy. Koi ek thappad mare dusra gaal aage kardo 🥰. Ye defence, aircrafts ye army sab dogla pan h 🥰. Love from Pakistan 

The actual question is, how many of these accounts are actual Indians?

zukoandhonor

They are right on the ROI part, we don't know any returns yet, how many people we lost on artillery shelling near the border area is unclear, how much jets we lost is unclear. 

If the government was transparent about it, one could better assess if it was a success or failure. 

Pakistan 20% air infrastructure was disabled temporarily not destroyed, but they chest thumped calling it destroyed. 

No idea of how much we burned to defend ourselves. 

Completely no idea of return at all. 

Only one good thing, the Indus treaty got suspended, if they undo that decision in near future, the return of the operation might become net negative, that is the only good thing that came out of it.

Also for us taking down the enemy jets, there is no official statement, they are just dragging it in the name of technical analysis, which causes another roadblock, people are already saying, government find out they didn't take out anything, so drag the matter till people forget it.

Unless there is a clear cut accountability, we can't do anything, govt is acting like CCP suppressing every information while chest thumping inside. 

The last time they shot thier own helicopter in a friendly fire, this time lost jets, every god damn time they fight with pakistan even in a first strike, they end up sustaining more losses. Like even last time 2019, they said they drowned this jet, that jet, but in the end no information came out ever, like this time, only for them actually downing their own helicopter.

The international delegation that was made and sent, was arbitrary, and more of propaganda, we never got to see what their objectives were? 

Too much lack of transparency.

Like does the delegation receive any tangible or non tangible benefits? No country statement shifted on the stance after it, no deals, no official documents, no country coming out and clarifying their stance on the matter. 

No matter how much you call them anti-nationalist, the thing was govt is playing hide and seek, trying to pretend it was more successful than it might have, and politicising it.

They forgot to write dil dil pakistan at the end of the reply

CalmestUraniumAtom

I heard this somewhere "Modi virodhi se aap kab Desh vidrohi ban jaoge aapko pata bhi nahi chalega!"

They are wrong, but the operation and its losses does show the urgent need for 5th generation fighters, especially when contrasted with the Israeli and American actions in Iran. If we are to be able to genuinely protect ourselves going forward, we must push 500% towards as many squadrons as possible of stealth aircraft.

SolarpowerFTW

If India didn't respond these same people like Dhruv Rathee and all would be screaming that India govt. doesn't have guts to respond etc etc.. (I'm not favoring the current party, nor the opposition. Just my honest opinion.)

Winter-Crew-2746

If India hadn't executed Operation Sindoor, these same people would have talked about how GOI doesn't care about terrorist attacks. These people don't really understand the gravity of situations but love to throw around words like "Hindutva", "Godi media", "fascism",  "extremism" and et al.

AlarmedMission2

yup it was unnecessary and stupid, we barely managed to break even on destructions - cost ratio, we were using million dollar missiles to destroy airfield that maybe took a million dollar to build when we should be using them for the anti ship purpose they were designed to serve.

and we ended up getting literally nothing in return, all the terrorist camps we destroyed would be back at full strength next week and we also ended up providing them data on the weakness of their defense systems.

That and we ended up uniting them when our goal should have been the opposite.

bhavy111

I would say it was necessary but should have been better planned. The loss of 19 people in Poonch was really sad.

Jolly-Vanilla9124

Do yall not realise people can have opinions. Some people may have found the operation unnecessary, because it was open escalation. War is not good for the economy and the army. 

Some people also hold a belief that we should have conducted a surgical strike instead of open bombings.

You can't call someone anti national just for having an opinion.

Afterlife301208

ApplicationNo4756

it was unnecessary. where is the proof that pak was involved in pahalgam?

Ever since 1994 Coimbatore serial blast where 200 died...personally I fed up with its still continuation. Somewhere there should be a boundary...enough is enough.

Edit: I understand the year is wrong it was 1998. it is a mistake in my part. But the causalities is more than the 'official' number. My extended family members were in police and they know the real carnage. I personally just left 5 min before from one of the complex that blown away. It is one of the earliest attacks that used sophisticated explosives. I am not here to bash anybody tbh.

Top_Dragonfly9300

The thing is we as a country need to establish the fact, that we will not tolerate cross border terrorism. And that is what the government has been trying to establish, by operations like the Surgical Strike, Balakot Air Strike, and now Operation Sindoor. And these strikes are important if we want to concretely put forward our stance on terrorism.

_Im_Sherlock

So people are expecting that Pakistan will go sane if we keep quite?
But what is Pakistan?

Is it People who don't support violence against India?
Pakistan Army?
Terrorists operating from their Land?
Islamic Extremists?
Incompetent and corruption Government?

Designer-Winter6564

This is the point. Mourn for the civilians who died as collaterals. But we did need to show that we will not sit quiet.

My main concern now is escalation, and then how to stop Pakistan from harbouring terrorists.

At the same time, it's not right to celebrate or justify collateral deaths. That's sadistic.

lastofdovas

Sure, but Do u think India could've increased security before doing such thing?

Also, where do u live, as I live near borders, and its tensed af here, If u don't live near border or have any real threat, I am not saying this operation was bad, I am saying security could've increased before launching it

Elegant_Noise1116

There's a line I read somewhere that's 100% accurate "it's easier to guilt the side that still believes in morals".
But we are not going to be sorry for this attack. We stand by our troops and our right to defend our land and people.

maverix89

True man. I mean what message are you sending across to the world by continuously doing nothing againsy terrorists that are attacking our people? India needs to show up for itself and make it clear that we are bot going to be messed with. While I do not condone and praise the loss of innocent civilians but doing nothing just makes us an easy target for many more terror attacks to come in the future. Enough is enough.

inilashremot

Kashmiri people are collateral damage , nobody gets to call this operation as justice, if government still fail to find real offenders, the terrorists who have done Pahalgam attack.

Feeling Sorry for People living near Border.

Yesterday Everyone was putting out status about Operation Sindoor but what about civilians who got killed.

Nobody cares about them anymore

Real Offenders are still not caught or killed, this operation will be justice if those are killed.

Also , Our Government can't afford this war.

Pakistan has already lost,their govenment is not stable ,  they don't have anything to lose, but we have so much to lose.

Rare-Progress-4939

It's very easy to celebrate violence. While yes I agree that operation sindoor was necessary, I don't understand if we had the intel why wait for a terrorist attack to happen? Our country's civilians are still dying at the cross border firing. Anyone who promotes war should join the army first.

grayishugh

it was necessary but it was not planned well for the aftermath , too many casualties taking place rn.

purrrr_kitten

There were intel reports on possible breaches in Srinagar, much before Pahalgam could happen. Why aren't people outraged about the same? The women lost their husbands because the GOI failed to protect these men. And now there's this war with "Sindoor" written all over it. By all means, question Pakistan, but also question your own government. The people on the other side of the border are equally fed up.

SunSunny07

Pakistan has launched and run terrorism against India as an industry for 35 years now. These JeM and LeT campuses that were attacked were of multiple acres, housed many students and trainee militants, had swimming pools, shooting ranges, gyms, mosques and all sort of facilities to literally physically and mentally train people to come and kill Indians. The leaders of these orgs are Masood Azhar (someone they hijacked a plane to free from Indian custody) and Hafiz Saeed (organizer of 26/11 attacks) who live as respected industry leaders in the country.

Yes, the war will have implications - but, it is untenable for us to have these industries develop and kill us with impunity whenever they want to.

In last 5 years alone, 1000+ Indians (civilians in Kashmir and defense personnel) have been killed by this industry. They may not have all happened in one day but they have been hitting us everyday. Sometimes you are left with no alternative but to retaliate hard and be ready for the consequences - whatever they are

Monsultant

Yes true... It was needed
They don't think about our civillians deliberately targeted them in pehalgam
What our government did was retaliation. Feeling bad for civillians who lost their lives in pakistan. But these terrorist should get taste of their own medicine. If our government wouldn't have take actions they would have call our country coward and would have been encouraged to attack India more.

CharacterWinter2804

India is 100 percent justified. Jai Hind.

Lexis_Citric

the realest thing i’ve seen on reddit today. india didn’t target a single civilian, while pak govt n army is trying to villainise our country in the eyes of global politicians and countries. ur right, pak has a history of harbouring and training terrorists to send to india + lying about it (and we always find out anyways), hence this attack was a response, not aggression. and india has since announced that they will not be doing anything further, unless pak does, and i think that’s fair. as a human before any religion, i hope that no one on either side is hurt during a feud between something that isn’t even related to them. and would would be the worst possible outcome for both of us, which is why i hope everyone is sane enough to avoid it and deescalate the situation. praying for both indian and pakistani civilians, praying we all have long happy lives and there is peace 

rh34exe

First of all, one needs the basic common sense to understand this was an attack on terror camp not on another nation.

As the Indian army had rightly said, it was measured, responsible and non-escalatory in Nature.

If any one of them thinks it was an attack on a specific country, you are already saying that the country is a Terrorist. 

Also providing shelter to terrorists is equivalent to aiding the terrorism. They aren't innocent.

Randomsameer

Wake me up when the actual justice is carried out by nabbing the 4 militants who carried out the killings.

Till then, all this is entertainment.

I'm 100% sure that some time in the future if any of those four militants are gunned down, we wouldn't be having 100 posts per day on the same topic.

I am so done with these peace merchants. Dozens of innocent Indians were killed and they still care about "innocent" Pakistani lives. If any civilian had died, it's sad but that's the cost Pakistan had to bear to kill Indian citizens. You can't kill our citizens and then say what about ours.

NavdeepGusain

I’ve lost multiple friendships over this issue in the last two days, mostly women as well who think India is a war monger and Pakistan however it is, should not have been attacked by strikes because a single child died. It’s appalling that a child died but we attacked terror installations, the chief of the LeT himself admitted his family members died, what more proof do you want for our intent? 

One of them even said Pakistan will not take it lightly, Shehbaz Sharif will attack, bloody let them, how much more do you want this country and its people to take? The British destroyed our sense of self and after Independence a failed state has been doing and trying to do the same. It’s only our Armed Forces and collective sense of being that has made us resist all such divisiveness and these Papa ki Pari’s sitting in LBZ think it’s wrong and they’re scared? I mean we didn’t start this, things were under control before Pahalgam, people loved going to Kashmir. 

Just because a failed state acts like this, we are under no compunction to take it lightly and turn the other cheek, Gandhi and his ideals are utopian but unfortunately he didn’t leave us a utopian country, practicality mandates aggression especially when it is against our soil and our people. Nobody wants war, India was doing alright, with all our issues we were trying to move forward and solve things slowly, we have been put into a state of war by our failed neighbour who doesn’t have anything to lose, they’ve already lost whatever credibility they had. I say fuck Pakistan and it’s State, we don’t want and neither wish for occupying that country but they attack my own they best believe me and millions more like me are  right behind our soldiers. 

paxindicasuprema

No Indian will ever call Kashmir - the land that was never ours. 

It is this stupid trend of people from other countries creating fake accounts as Indians.

life_of_pluto

It's not like we bombed civillian residencies

nonexistent09

The attack was necessary, but people who are demanding for a proper war (met a lot of people like that) are the ones who are in wrong

Sleeper--

Agreed — it was definitely needed.

That said, I can’t help but wonder: if these locations were already known as training grounds for Kasab and others, why did we wait from 2008 until now to act?

Also, how many terrorist leaders have actually been eliminated? I haven’t heard of even one. If they’re still alive, they’ll just keep creating hundreds &amp; thousands more like them.

Operation Sindoor might slow things down temporarily but that’s about it. Meanwhile, Pakistan's army continues to target civilians in Poonch and nearby regions. Sadly, the casualties — whether soldiers or civilians — on the Indian side seem to be only increasing after Pahalgam attack, first due to terrorists and now due to Pakistan army.

I genuinely hope things lead to a positive outcome and that all terror elements are neutralised asap. India shouldn’t wait for the next attack to respond.

Just my perspective — open to hearing what others think.

Actual-Topic6103

"Indians don't want war" oh trust me. A huge population in India wants the entirety of Pakistan to be wiped out and want a whole war. Indian audience has been radicalised badly. 

  
baaki sab i agree

depressoham

India tried peace many times: Be it Atal Ji, be It Modi Ji, or Be it Congress in there many years.  
But if the other person pisses on your hand, when you offer hand shake. And if you ignore them, than they starts pissing on you.... what is the solution!!!!  
  
Because some of us leave in border, I can understand their fear. But what is the solution. Let them come and back and kill our people without fear of any retaliation!!!!  
  
India needs to retaliate. There must be apt replies from India side for each Indian kill be it soldier or be it our civilian. There should be terror of retaliation from India.

As for your family safety for the people at border:  
1. The enemy is Pakistan: they are killing our People.  
2. If you make homes in future do make bunker to avoid direct shellings.  
3. if you have cars start living in them, stay mobile so its harder for enemy to hit you  
4. If you can afford holiday, go for a holiday : Thera re many cheap places in India for time being. Go there and come back after a while.  
5. You can work out as community and create bunker faster than any help can reach you.  
  
They wanted to kill you anyway , even if India did not retaliated!!!  
  
India needs to retaliate. There must be apt replies from India side for each Indian kill be it soldier or be it our civilian. There should be terror of retaliation from India.

john2find

I earlier wrote a post criticising operation Sindoor, I now whole heartedly support it. Enough is enough, we are tired of Pakistan's misadventures. 


Indian govt should take all possible short or long term steps to make sure pakistan balkanises for good in coming decades.


This temporary Nation has existed for too long now, it would be best to finish this nation without a war, through strangulating it with water wars to supporting freedom movements within it.


If USSR with biggest military power and maximum nukes can balkanise , then even this temporary Nation is no exception. This should be our long term focus with respect to Pakistan.

Anna_tiger

Is sub ko yeh hua kya hai? Jahan dekho positive comments?

haa-tim-hen-tie

Atleast they will not do terror attacks for next few months. And they had been killing Indians by the hundreds every year. While it is a painful and difficult decision to take, it should be millitary acting in Frontline absorbing casualties, civilian terror has to stop even at great costs.
I hope there are minimal operational losses to Indian army, I hope this battle stops in next few days with each having their own version of story.

rsburnu

This is a stitch in time that’ll save 900 later…while I’m relatively safe where I am, I feel that the Army is showing controlled aggression and not just firing blindly…but it was long overdue.

Admirable_Ad4607

You are right, If your country gets attacked by anyone, then yes, absolutely yes, fight and attack back. To do nothing but accept it is beyond ridiculous.

&gt;fighting for land that was never ours

Bruhh all the nearby land is ours and that was called akhand bharat in the past.

For how much time India remains silent losing the lives of our civilians and our military personnel. It's very necessary to retaliate and that's what India did this time and I am very happy that at least now terrorists won't think for a long time to do something like this for a long time.

PrakharDubey12

I don’t think it was strategically wrong :- 

1. time was perfect - USA and the whole world is busy with trump. Military acts are pretty common these days. Sad but true. 

2. india needs to eradicate terrorists in PoK once for all. But we haven’t done enough i think. 

However i think, execution was wrong:-

1. Losing expensive top class jets is embarrassing. 

2. Making a scene out of it and creating a mood of war etc is stupid and immature. They should have sent the news and kept quiet. Over explaining things etc isn’t helping. People who are scared of street dogs are becoming military experts now.

Kambar

Sorry please correct me here - has the government identified the perpetrators and tracked them down? If not, then this attack is indeed meaningless. 

bredbuttgem

Pahalgam was a message for India that they will keep doing this, what are you going to do. Operation Sindoor was India’s response.

PixelPusherSEO

agreed but dont y'all think all this could have been avoided if the government just took national security seriously. back in 2011 after the mumbai attacks when bjp was in opposition modi started blaming government immediately, flew to bombay after the attacks just to criticize the government even when he was told not to fly out by authorities. A response was necessary but if that response makes your own country go backward a decade it is no less than chopping off your own feet. we aren't asking the questions we need to, the government isn't taking accountability and is milking the situation to gather more votes

Trick-Counter6540

Those people who call it wrong are the enemy inside. Idiots who love to listen to themselves speak with complete belief in their own bloated sense of self superiority. People who cannot see or sympathise with the tears of their own brethren, but wish to pontificate about some foolish ideology to get a few claps from across the border to assiguate their own sense of self worth.

Leather_Stomach_1885

Alert_Card472

It's time we established deterrence. It's been long that Pakistanis have taken Indian lives for granted. If I am being honest, they treat their own people as pigs (a necessary sacrifice in a shadow war with India). It's time that we let it be known that not only we bloody damm well know how to defend our people, that we can also strike terrorist camps inside your major province (Pakistani Punjab, where most of the political power is concentrated). Yes we should not target civilians like they do, that we shouldn't, and we are following it. 16 people have died in the ceasefire violations in J&amp;K. And yes, Pakistani have deployed their artilleries in civilian village due to which if there's counter bombardment, the civilians will get hurt in PoK, instead we should destroy their nearest brigade headquarters in PoK. And please stop calling this operation a befitting response to the terror attacks in Pahalgam. The lives of our people are much more valuable than the terrorists and the people behind them (ofc the lumber 1 army, Pakistan Army).

VCyberpunk2001

Well, I guess now we have to get justice for those who were killed in Poonch. So when will this end?

caesar_calamitous

No one is saying that targeted attacks are wrong, but all the drama around civil defence preparedness gave a heads-up to the Pakistani establishment, allowing them to ready their defences.

Odd-Yogurtcloset5072

Personally I am pacifist by nature. And I have no particular opinion on which side to take. I will always be on side of non violence no matter which side is doing it. Having said that it's mandate of the country and democratically elected government. So whether I support it or not is not gonna matter. My only problem is people celebrating it as if it's Diwali. You can take the side of the strike without celebrating it. Being joyful about killing people is morally wrong and I am ready to die on that hill. Same goes for the naming of the operation. It's lazy and outright offensive in a country we are trying to move away from the gender norms and patriarchy.

sargasticgujju

The only justification you gave for this operation, was that the victims were avenged. But I didn't see a single victim asking for revenge, rather they asked for accountability from the govt, to which Amit Shah cut the Mike when the family was crying.

the widows on whose name "sindoor" was coined were dragged though the mud by the ruling govt punters when she wanted peace and harmony. 

Instead of resigning for such a shit show of security, they launched an attack to show lollipop instead of hounding the terrorists who did it. 

It's easy to say pray for family when you are sitting miles away in your sandaas, while locals are killed.

im_just_depressed

As it was quoted by a Buddhist monk during rohingya crisis "You can be full of kindness and love but you can't sleep next to a mad dog".

ashfriends

Terrorist camps were targeted. Why were "civilians" in any of the terrorist camps. Why were they breeding these terrorists when there are civilians living nearby. Why are people calling an internationally recognised terrorist's family "civilians". 
After Pahalgam,Pakistanis purposely attacked the innocent civilization, including numerous kids , school and gurudwara in Poonch,Jammu as a "reply" to Operation Sindoor,That's what we call a cowardly move. Fucking snakes,who are still acting like India attacked first or did something wrong.  Nobody wants war,but war is a duty when it's about protecting and avenging your honour and your people.
The nation should always come first. Supporting blindly your country's shortcomings is definitely not what patriotism is,but standing by it in the time of a crisis is what patriotism is. Anyone who is "neutral" should not be here,go stay in a "neutral" country.

People who are loving the escalation should switch places with the people living near the borders. They are willing to take one for the team, am I right?

scarb_123

The strike was necessary. The strikes were against terrorist camps that our neighbours did nothing to stop. 

Their government either supports these terrorists or fears them.  Either way, they must be destroyed before they kill more innocents. 

This wasn't India against our neighbours nor India against a particular religion, it was India against terrorism. It isn't war between India and our neighbours.

1800skylab

Exactly! what were we supposed to do, wait for another cowardly terrorist attack sponsored by Pakistan? Op Sindoor was absolutely necessary.

half_blood_prince_16

I am as secular as one gets and I'll say - Operation Sindoor isn't wrong. There is no reason why India should just suffer through terror attack after terror attack. Retaliation is necessary to show terrorist groups and Pakistan government that if necessary, Indian government will escalate.

NiceGuy_4eva

Without any proof for involvement of pahalgam attack from across the border, it is absurd and war mongering behavior to attack a neighboring sovereign country.

You do realize India hasn’t established pak’s involvement on factual grounds. 

And you do realize pak will respond back not only for face saving but also to establish the equality of
Powers. 

What will happen then? A literally nuclear war can kick off that can destroy whole region. For what? Because India had to initiate attacks without any proof.

Don’t support countries or nationalism. Support the right thing whether done by our country or enemy’s

Unlce_Iroh

This was required, whoever calling it wrong be should send to the boarders, 

Fearless_Nothing_585

&gt; Let’s be real this operation was a response to justice, not aggression.

What is this supposed to mean, op?

I disagree with the notion. Operation "xyz" is basically just a promotion model for Modi, first and foremost. You only need to look at objective facts. Which buildings were targeted? From the video footage, it is HIGHLY unlikely that any of these were terrorist training centers. Admittedly they also weren't military facilities either, but if India just destroys civilian buildings as a "response" to terrorist attacks - and in the process kills more civilians than died in the initial terrorist attacks - then what is the real objective here? Clearly it is not to "combat terrorism". So the question then is: what is the objective here? It is clear that any "response" is engineered to create a counter-response.

&gt; our people’s lives matter.

Israel claims the same yet numerous civilians were killed in Gaza. I don't buy into such an argument. For similar reasons I have doubts whether "Operation Sindoor" is anything but a propaganda tool at this point in time, trying to sell war to a population - not unlike propaganda in Russia, aimed at pulling more people into killing Ukrainians. That's all bad, and "Pray for peace." does not really focus on the core issue: the decision makers.

Well maybe just maybe figure out why there was lack of security and start questioning our Govt in power for starters.

I'm not taking sides and I deeply condemn all the innocent lives lost till date but

why was there lapse in security which led to pahalgam attack?

Did our govt (which has an agenda against muslims) bait pakistani terrorist and put our nation at risk so they have a reason to create tensions between the two countries?

Let's be honest! Pakistani army is not innocent by any means but creating the situation which leads to war pretty to beneficial to ruling govt or pakistani army in their case TO STAY IN POWER!

and it conveniently also pushes their agenda and creates tension among Hindu &amp; Muslims!

It is lose-lose situation to civilians. War is never an answer.

ProtectionDue5712

Many conversations in the pak lounge are very similar to Lebanese response after Israel went after Hezbollah.


The pak army and ISI, funds, fuel and propagates the terror networks - a thing they should stop fu**ing doing. For God sake you had Osama bin Laden hidden near a army town.

ProfessorX2022

I’m seeing reports that few attacks were deep inside Pakistan. Let’s see how it escalates from here, would Pakistan retaliate now?!

Additional-Stay-8888

All this has happened with planning, that is why India has thoughtfully organized a mock drill on the 7th May so that if Pakistan retaliates, the people of India will remain alert. Pakistan has accepted that this attack has happened on Pakistan, so it can retaliate. Now the matter has become serious, anything can happen now, that is why the mock drill will have to be taken seriously.
