Naming the Newborns: Sindoor as a Symbol of Strength

Following India's military action dubbed 'Operation Sindoor' against Pakistan after the Pahalgam terror attack, 17 newborn girls in Kushinagar have been named 'Sindoor'. This naming trend is fueled by admiration for the Indian Armed Forces' response and the symbolic meaning of the operation.

Inspired by India's military action, Operation Sindoor, several families in Kushinagar have chosen 'Sindoor' as the name for their newborn daughters. This decision aligns with the military's decisive response to the Pahalgam terror attack last month, which claimed several lives, mostly tourists.

The operation launched on May 7 directly targeted nine terrorist infrastructures in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied-Kashmir, marking a crucial response to the attack in Pahalgam. As many as 17 girls born in just two days were bestowed with the name in honor of the military operation.

Families, including Archana and Ajit Shahi, see this naming as an embodiment of courage and patriotism, hoping their daughters grow up understanding the profound significance of 'Sindoor' as both a name and a symbol of strength and resilience.
