What do you do to be involved in the community?
The post discusses community involvement, emphasizing the importance of national security and integrity, particularly in the face of terrorism. It recounts the Pahalgam massacre on April 22, 2025, where terrorist attacks claimed 26 innocent lives, prompting India to launch “Operation Sindoor” on May 7, 2025, targeting terrorist camps in Pakistan. The narrative highlights India’s long-standing challenges with state-sponsored terrorism from Pakistan and its historical military engagements to defend its sovereignty. It praises the Indian military’s precision in counter-offensives while commending Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership and dedication to national safety and community welfare.
Community work is something that is common and affects a wider number of people sharing some common characteristics, things or interests. It is usually a united effort and a result of the contribution of all members of a community.
A few days ago, I wrote a piece tracing the historical aspect of community welfare. It is yet again a prompt on the same topic.
The most important aspect of community welfare is the safety and security of the nation. Other important things can wait. National integrity and safety are of utmost importance. The country received a severe blow from a handful of religious fanatics trained and funded by hostile neighbours. The cowards stealthily crept into the country, assaulted innocents, and, after establishing their religious faiths, killed them in cold blood. The 22 April 2025 was the black day in Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir (India) when 26 innocent tourists were killed in cold blood by terrorists.
The ruthless killings sent a Shockwave across the country. Simmering with indignation, the country roared in unison and demanded revenge. It was justified too. The hostile neighbour has been patronizing and infiltrating the terrorists to destabilize the country and instigate communal violence between the different communities of the country. A befitting reply was the demand of the country. After meticulous planning and careful consideration of every possible fallout, schemes were chalked out, and a massive counter-offensive was launched against terrorist outfits flourishing in the neighbourhood.
Nine places were attacked with utmost precision and accuracy, destroying the terrorist outfits and terror camps in different locations of the hostile neighbour under “Operation Sindoor”. The operation was carried out on 07 May 2025 during the night at about 01:30 AM. Our Bravehearts didn’t cross the international border. It was a precise action carried out jointly by tri-services using one of the most powerful fighter aircraft, Rafail and missiles. It all was accomplished swiftly.
In utter disgrace, the enemy started boasting that they had destroyed a few aircraft. It was the degree of the desperate vacuum they faced and shamelessly befooling their people with false propaganda on bogus grounds.
India has been facing state-sponsored terrorism by Pakistan for a long time. Terrorism, fuelled and funded by the enemy, has been ailing the country for the last few decades. The hostile neighbour provides a safe haven and fertile breeding ground for various dreaded terrorist outfits, who, encouraged by and at their command, try to disrupt the peace and harmony of the country. These terrorist outfits run as “Mujahideen” and try to jeopardise social harmony and public order, besides posing a potential threat to national interests and sovereignty. The groups of trained religious radicals and fanatics used to infiltrate the country to carry out sinister plots of gore and destruction.
India has replied befittingly on various occasions with its precise surgical strikes, but as has been said, a dog’s tail is always crooked. The shameless ruts habitually repeat the misadventure to get a tight blow on their face. Again, to give them a befitting reply, the country launched a counter-offensive named “Operation Sindoor”.
More than seven decades ago, in 1947, the country was freed but at a heavy cost of vivisection. A section claimed that they were different and had no commonality between the two communities, viz, Hindu and Muslims. The leader of the latter, Mohd. Ali Jinnah propounded a “Two-Nation” theory and demanded a separate nation for Muslims. It culminated in vivisection. They, though, did not stop there. Since its beginning, they have sowed seeds of hatred and division. They imposed a war in 1948 on Kashmir and started laying unilateral and unfounded claims on it. The hostile nation adopted an offensive posture like that of a deadly snake. Despite the best efforts of our nation to forget the past and start afresh, they stay arrogant and unaffected treating India as timid. It needed to teach them a lesson.
They did not stop and thrust full-fledged wars on India in 1965, 1971 and 1999. Their sinister intention was to annexe Kashmir by deceitful engagement with India. It is niteworthy that India never attacks anyone and respects territorial integrity and sovereignty of other nations. Parallel to it it also knows how to protect it’s boundaries and sovereignty threatened by petty countries.
Unquestionably, Kashmir is an integral part of India, and it shall always stay so. Yet they always tried to raise the issue to internationalise it, but failed. Their attempts have always been unsuccessful due to India’s interference, and they have consistently been pushed back. Their latest audacious misadventure was in Kargil in 1999. They trespassed Indian territory and stealthily captured the hills of the Kargil sector. The shameless enemy was cowardly enough which come in the disguise of Mujahideen. The first loss apart, Indian forces fell heavily on them. After two months of war, they were thrown out of Indian territory. They fail to bear the brunt of the massive counter-offensive by India. To say the least, their cowardice was such that they did not even accept the dead bodies of their soldiers. The last rites were performed by Indian forces with dignity.
The carnage of Pahalgam was a link in their chain of sinister plotting. They insidiously crept in and performed the gory killing of innocent tourists. They thought India would not retaliate, but as usual, they lived in a fool’s paradise. Blinded by baseless and unfounded beliefs and envious of Indian progress, they once again took the misadventure of attacking India. Failing in their efforts, they are now crying foul but without getting noticed internationally. They have been completely isolated. No one, except for one or two, is with them even as an eye wash.
The mendacious attitude of Pakistan’s ruling class and its people that they are superior holds no water. It was glaring when, as an aftermath of the Pahalgam carnage, India discontinued all types of visas and gave them a deadline to leave the country. Most Pakistanis did not want to leave India and created a scene at the borders.
A failed state, Pakistan is reeling with a plethora of internal problems. Even its ostensible “Muslim” brotherhood is not paying. They frantically try to portray themselves as a saviour of Islam; they are fuelling and taming hatred against non-Muslims. It has pushed them into a blind alley; return is impossible therefrom.
The Pakistani system tries to draw nourishment from the liquid of “Hate India” and negate the very roots of the Indian connection. They deliberately do not want to annexe their past with Indian history; they try to live in a futile denial and adhere to a different race; they do not belong to.
The balloon of their mendacious attitude was deflated in 1971 when, within a short period of a little more than two decades, the “Islamic State” was divided, and one part was separated. “East Pakistan” was liberated, and a new nation ” Bangladesh” was born. It testifies to the futility and hollowness of an inflexible and rigid theocratic state.
Even the other Islamic states where the faith has originated have their ways considerably and have emerged as broad-minded and relatively more open and inclusive societies. The adoption of new ways of life in the changing world scenario keeps a society abreast with new ways. It augments mutual cooperation and the development of all. Confrontation of any sort or military engagement is no solution. India’s retaliation was against terrorist outfits and organisations which were operating in the disguise of mosques and Madrasas amidst crowded localities.
The Indian army, in its press conference after the operation, has categorically stated that it was an operation aimed at terrorist outfits operating from Pakistan. It was a precise, correct job done with a sensitive approach. Indian Army and tri-services working in tandem have performed the task with deadly accuracy. It was not a military engagement. Pakistan, though, is shelling on the borders unilaterally, breaching the ceasefire and targeting innocent civilians. It shows their utter desperation.
The precise, exact and deadly action of the Indian tri-services deserves eulogies. Kudos to the army and Indian leadership, which, exhibiting supreme confidence, patience and resilience, have performed a daunting task to eradicate terror camps operating from across the border. The Indian army and soldiers are our pride.
Indian opposition, despite their ideological differences, stood firm and supported the government. They must also be credited for it.
A special mention to Hon’ble Prime Minister Sri Narendra Modi, who untiringly worked for it and burned the midnight oil to plan and execute such a flawless operation. He is a man of unflinching determination, courage, dedication and commitment. The country is proud of him and his contribution. As a common man, I don’t have the words to express my feelings and respect. Thank you, Modi Ji.
