Asaduddin Owaisi, KTR, & Bandi Sanjay support Operation Sindoor strikes on terror camps in Pakistan
Hyderabad: Political leaders across party lines in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh have expressed strong support for Operation Sindoor, the Indian military’s pre-dawn strike on terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK), carried out in retaliation for the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam.
AIMIM president and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi welcomed the strikes, stating on X, “I welcome the surgical strikes carried out by our defence forces on terror camps in Pakistan. The Pakistani deep state must be taught a tough lesson so that another Pahalgam never happens again. Pakistan’s terror infrastructure must be completely destroyed. Jai Hind! #OperationSindoor.”
میں ہماری دفاعی افواج کی جانب سے پاکستان میں دہشت گرد ٹھکانوں پر کیے گئے ہدفی حملوں کا خیرمقدم کرتا ہوں۔ پاکستانی ڈیپ اسٹیٹ کو ایسا سبق سکھانا چاہیے کہ پھر کبھی دوسرا پہلگام نہ ہو۔ پاکستان کے دہشت گردی کے ڈھانچے کو تباہ کر دینا چاہیے۔ جے ہند!#OperationSindoor

Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar described the operation as swift and effective. “Operation Sindoor – precise, ruthless, and unforgiving. Pahalgam martyrs avenged. Proud of our bravehearts! Mera Bharat Mahaan. Jai Hind!”

In the early hours of May 7, India launched Operation Sindoor, targeting nine suspected terror camps located in Pakistan and PoJK. The strikes were carried out at 1:44 AM IST and focused on locations including Bahawalpur, Muzaffarabad, Kotli, and Muridke areas linked to terror outfits Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed.
The military action came in response to the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, where 25 Indian citizens and one Nepali national were killed.
According to the Ministry of Defence, the strikes were carefully planned to avoid civilian casualties and did not target Pakistani military facilities. All Indian aircraft involved in the operation returned safely.
More information is expected from defence officials later in the day.
