Air India can be a chaotic airline at times, delays, changes and outdated cabins are well-known issues but they aren't unsafe. Their staff is well-trained and India has some of the strictest aviation regulations in the world. I had over 20+ flights on them in the past and I would always fly them again. My thoughts and prayers are with the airline and families today!
Many foreigners are hurling abuse at India, claiming accidents like the Air India crash are “expected.” Time for a quick reality check:
India operates 8,000+ flights every day, that is over 3 million a year.
Only 2 fatal commercial crashes in 10 years before this. That’s a safety record on par with the U.S. and EU.
India ranks 48th in ICAO’s aviation safety oversight rankings ahead of:
China (49)
Isreal (50)
Turkey (54)
Norway (52)
India also holds FAA Category 1 status, meaning it meets the highest international safety standards.
Check facts before spewing hate!
Our Humble effort in trying to provide the entire Press Briefing in Tamil.
Video Link: https://t.co/aa1K1uDQuO
Kindly share it with those who would like to hear it in Tamil.
Jai Hind 🇮🇳 Bharat Maata ki Jai 🇮🇳
Indian DF joint briefing — with facts, they presented evidence for every claim they made. 🇮🇳
Pakistan’s briefing — “We destroyed this and that.”
Where is the proof?
“It’s all over social media.”
Bloody jokers 🤣🤣😹
At Press conference
-Indian Defence Officials : See these Pic/video evidences how we destroyed Pakistani terror camps, airbase and killed terrorists
-Pakistani Defence officials : Trust me bro, we shot down 50 Rafales..
I believe today’s press conference by Defence Officials brought back confidence in most Indians, if not all.
The detailed information, confidence, bluntness, and absolute Chad behaviour delivered with a straight face—it was outstanding.
BIG NEWS 🚨 P Chidambaram praises PM Modi.
He said PM Modi wisely chose a calibrated military response limited to selected targets.
He noted that the Prime Minister handled India-Pak situation with caution.
🚨Pakistan Army showed Edited video of Aajtak as proof of attack on India.
The full clip shows Aajtak was talking about Pakistan.
Pakistan lying in front of International Media
@ahmadwaraichh After hitting missile on capital 😂😂 and all major cities .You dont even able to touch any city beyond border area..we reached till peshawar.. pakistani ko kaun smjhaye ki every major city tk missile aana is incapability of army 😂😂hmari navy sochti hogi ek city toh rhene do
Coverage on CNN global, that very much confirms that the attack on Nur base was indeed proximate to the nuclear facilities and that’s when US was dialed for help. (We won’t ever know if US has any nuclear assets there). But seems it was now global issue. #CNN#IndiaPakistanWar
"Lots of people already vacated this place week ago"
"Govt of Pakistan though it could be possible"
They knew LeT headquarter was gonna attacked, yet they failed to stop it.
Sky News to Pakistani diplomat:
"Is it humiliating that India can strike so deep and so precisely inside Pakistan?"
Even foreign media isn’t buying the delusion—Pakistan getting schooled on live TV.
It took just 24 hours and propaganda went 💥 just like their air force and nuclear bases 🤣
Indians are behaving like topper girls who get upset over scoring 98 out of 100...
Pakistanis are behaving like backbenchers who are just happy to pass with grace marks with the help of tuition teacher...
Operation Sindoor vs. Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos
Some of the firsts
One :
Realizing the stalemated status or irrelevance of the UNSC, India didn’t seek to request sympathy from the five of the 1945. Operation Sindoor clearly demonstrated a strong sense of self-confidence and real strategic autonomy and sovereignty.
Two:
For the first time, India shredded the notion that terrorists are separate from terrorist backers and thus targeted both. The notion that certain powerful rogue officers of Pakistani State authorize terrorist attacks was also shredded. This is a new paradigm. Another type of deniability must be invented.
Third:
There was a battle going and a war being planned. In the midst of the battle, Pakistan negotiated for a loan from the IMF, which surprisingly approved it. It matters because most likely Pakistan isn’t fit enough to finance a war but has capabilities to engage in battles. A war can't be won with IMF loans anyway.
Fourth:
The strategic patience and cultural restraint have a limit. That limit was tested on April 22 by the Lashkar Teyba terrorists. Perhaps they wanted what followed. They didn’t benefit from their adventure though. Perhaps they wanted to humiliate India publicly. They seem to be mentally stuck in 2008.
Fifth:
Size matters. Every inch of Pakistan was under reach. I always thought the Nur Khan airbase was the best defended base of Pakistan. It isn’t. The grarrison town of Rawilpindi as the heart of Pakistan’s military and its best-known airbase was hit.
Sixth:
Pakistan lost the monopoly over Islamic Fatwa. The Indian ulema presented a fatwa of their own to their own government. Thus, the religious dimension always exploited by Pakistan to earn sympathy from the Muslim Ummah evaporated. Deoband is located in India by the way.
Seventh:
Keeping secrets in a democratic society is next to impossible, but very little leaked out of India, which shows enormous skills in adhering to principles of operational silence and public unity to assist in safeguarding of secrets.
Note: I have seen very little or no visuals from Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos to comment on. Seemingly, it never took off the way it was propagated. The ceasefire saved Pakistan’s skin. Pakistan military leadership has made statements and claims over their own achievements, but the Indian skies remained open, flights weren’t cancelled, and I haven’t seen visuals of missiles landing in Delhi or Amritsar.
1. Adarneeya Pradhan Mantri ji Shri @narendramodi, thank you for your stellar leadership which allows the common Bharateeya to breathe easy even under these circumstances. Finally this Rashtra is punching its weight and we are fortunate to witness it in our lifetime.
