‘From Land Of Sindoor Khela’: PM Modi Invokes Symbolism At Bengal Rally, Warns Pakistan

Prime Minister Narendra Modi invoked the deep cultural symbolism of Bengal’s Sindoor Khela to reinforce India’s hardened stance against terrorism, declaring that ‘Operation Sindoor’ is far from over and vowing further action against terror sponsors. Addressing his first rally in West Bengal since the launch of Operation Sindoor earlier this month, PM Modi said the recent anti-terror strikes had delivered a strong message to Pakistan. ‘Power of sindoor’ and the pain of Pahalgam standing on what he called the ‘sacred land of Sindoor Khela,’ PM Modi linked the military operation to a powerful cultural symbol, the red vermillion applied by Bengali women during Durga Puja. He said the April 22 terrorist attack in Pahalgam, which killed Indiar soldiers, was an attempt to ‘wipe off the sindoor from our sisters’ foreheads.’#narendramodi #sindoorkhela #operationsindoor #antiterrorism #westbengal #pahalgamattack #pakistan #counterterrorism #nationalsecurity #modispeech #terroristattack #proudindia #indiansoldiers #zerotolerance #surgicalstrike #toi #toibharat
