NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday changed the display pictures on his social media handles to mark the one year of the Operation Sindoor, which started this day a year ago, and asked everyone to do the same as a mark of respect to the armed forces and their success.
The profile picture of Modi on his handles on X, Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp channel have been changed to an image with the text ‘Operation Sindoor’ on a black background. The picture has a tricolour, with one of the ‘O’s of ‘SINDOOR’ filled with vermilion or sindoor — a symbol of married Hindu women.
In a post on X, the prime minister said a year ago, during Operation Sindoor, the Indian armed forces showcased their valour and gave a firm response to those who attacked our people and every Indian is proud of the country’s armed forces.
