Notably, the Indian Armed Forces carried out 'Operation Sindoor' in the wee hours of Wednesday which targeted terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir to avenge the deaths of the 26 innocent people killed in the horrific Pahalgam terrorist attack.
Priyadarshini said that Pakistan will never change its ways and will keep supporting terrorism. But if we keep taking strong actions like this, they might think twice before doing it again.

She added that Modi government has shown that India doesn’t only stand up for the rich or powerful. By taking this action, they’ve shown they care about ordinary people too—people like me. Government is for everyone, especially the poor and common people.
She asked the government not to stop until justice is done and called upon everyone to support the government, so that people can travel freely and safely anywhere in India.
Notably, as many as 26 civilians, mostly tourists, were killed when terrorists opened fire at Baisaran, a well-known meadow near the resort town of Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir, around 3 PM on Tuesday (April 22).
