NEW DELHI: Legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has joined a growing chorus of national voices in applauding the Indian armed forces for their precise and bold execution of " Operation Sindoor ".
Reacting to the military operation, Tendulkar posted on social media: “Fearless in unity. Boundless in strength. India’s shield is her people. There’s no room for terrorism in this world. We’re ONE TEAM! Jai Hind.”
Operation Sindoor was launched during the early hours of May 7 in retaliation for the recent Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 innocent civilians.

The Indian Air Force struck nine terror launchpads across Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir, targeting infrastructure linked to banned groups such as Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba .
Crucially, the operation was executed without breaching Pakistani airspace, showcasing strategic precision and restraint.
Several former and current Indian cricketers expressed their solidarity. Gautam Gambhir, Aakash Chopra, Harbhajan Singh, Suresh Raina, and Jhulan Goswami posted strong messages supporting the military response.
Harbhajan wrote: “#OperationSindoor is Bharat’s response to the brutal killing of our innocent brothers in Pahalgam. JAI HIND.”
Varun Chakravarthy, currently active in the IPL with Kolkata Knight Riders, also shared the operation’s official image on his Instagram story.
Former pacer Chetan Sharma emphasised the symbolic nature of the strike, calling it more than retaliation: “When it comes to security, India does not shy away. #OperationSindoor - Not an answer, but a message.”
According to defence officials, the targets were carefully selected based on intelligence inputs and eliminated without harming civilians or Pakistani military infrastructure, reinforcing India’s policy of targeted and accountable counter-terrorism.
