Скачать или смотреть Modi Says 'Hot Sindoor' Flows in his Veins, SC Says Ashoka Univ Prof's FB Post 'Dog Whistling'

In his first public address since Operation Sindoor and the four-day long military conflict with Pakistan, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a rally on Thursday (May 22) in Rajasthan’s Bikaner and said that “not blood, but hot sindoor (vermillion) is flowing” in his veins. Modi’s speech came on Thursday (May 22) as India marked a month since the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam in which 26 people, mostly tourists, were killed. While the speech was his third since the attack, Modi made no mention of why the perpetrators of the attack are yet to be nabbed, or the status of the investigations into the attack. Modi’s speech comes as seven teams of multi party delegations have fanned out across the world including UNSC member states in a major diplomatic outreach. Meanwhile the Supreme Court granted Ashoka University professor Ali Khan Mahmudabad interim bail subject to stringent rules.
