Prime Minister Narendra Modi's congratulatory message following India's victory over Pakistan in the 2025 Asia Cup final has sparked political controversy. In his post, Modi likened the cricket match to "Operation Sindoor," India's military response to the 2025 Pahalgam terror attack, stating, "Outcome is the same — India wins!" The Congress party swiftly criticized the comparison, with senior leader Pawan Khera stating, "It is not right to compare a cricket match to a battlefield." He further remarked that good captains do not announce a ceasefire on the orders of any third umpire, referencing the ceasefire during the 2025 India–Pakistan conflict. Additionally, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi expressed concern that such parallels between sports and military actions are inappropriate. She also warned that revenues generated from Pakistan's participation in cricket tournaments like the Asia Cup could potentially be channeled into funding terrorism. On the other hand, the BJP defended Modi's statement, emphasizing the spirit of national pride and unity. Party spokesperson Amit Malviya criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for not congratulating the Indian cricket team on their victory, suggesting that the Congress party often sides with Pakistan over India. #OperationSindoor #AsiaCup2025 #PMModi #CongressCriticism #NationalSecurity #SportsPolitics #IndiaPakistanRelations #CricketDiplomacy #BJPDefense @narendramodi
