NEW DELHI: BJP launched a digital offensive against Pakistan on Friday, mocking its failed military retaliation after Operation Sindoor and exposing Islamabad’s use of fake news to project false victories.
In a symbolic jab, BJP shared a 31-second clip from the tied India-Pakistan match during the 2007 T20 World Cup, where India clinched a 3-0 bowl-out win. Indian bowlers Virender Sehwag, Harbhajan Singh and Robin Uthappa hit the stumps with precision while Pakistan’s Yasir Arafat, Umar Gul and Shahid Afridi failed completely. “Kuch aisa tha. Operation Sindoor,” BJP posted on X, drawing a parallel between the cricketing humiliation and Pakistan’s ineffective drone and missile retaliation after India's cross-border strikes on May 7.
“Pakistan’s propaganda is quickly falling apart, exposing a web of lies and desperation,” BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya said. “In a blatant attempt to save face, deputy PM Ishaq Dar misled the country’s Senate. The claim was so outrageous that even Dawn, Pakistan’s leading newspaper, felt compelled to fact-check and debunk it,” he added.
