BJP to organise 'Tiranga Yatra' from today to mark Operation Sindoor's success

Party sources said the campaign’s tone will not be overtly political and they are looking to galvanize people over an issue, which has drawn support from all sections of the society.

The BJP will spearhead a 11-day long ’Tiranga Yatra’ across the country beginning Tuesday following the success of Operation Sindoor, as part of its outreach to people around the Modi government’s determined leadership and the valour of armed forces.

A BJP leader said to news agency PTI that the party is looking to rally people, including prominent members of the society, around India’s successful campaign against terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir in a campaign from May 13 to 23. Party sources said the campaign’s tone will not be overtly political and they are looking to galvanize people over an issue, which has drawn support from all sections of the society.

Senior BJP leaders, including Sambit Patra, BJP General Secretary Vinod Tawde, and Tarun Chugh, will coordinate the Tiranga Yatra. Union Ministers, Chief Ministers of the BJP-ruled states, and senior party leaders will lead the processions in different parts of the country, according to sources as reported by the news agency ANI.

The campaign will also involve ex-servicemen, social workers, and prominent social figures who will lead the yatra. During the campaign, the party will reach out to citizens across the nation to raise awareness about Operation Sindoor and its significance for India's security and sovereignty.

As part of this campaign, the BJP will organise press conferences throughout the country to highlight the success of Operation Sindoor. The party will also leverage social media influencers to amplify the message and reach a wider audience, source told ANI.

Earlier today, BJP's national spokesperson and MP Sambit Patra said that Operation Sindoor is a clear demonstration of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's resolve to eliminate terrorists in their safe havens.

"The Prime Minister had resolved that India would eliminate terrorists in their safe havens. Operation Sindoor is a clear demonstration of that commitment," Patra said during a press conference on Monday.
