Mahadangal: India-Pakistan Cricket Clash Amid Terror Tensions, National Outrage Grows | ABP NEWS
@Source: abplive.com
The announcement of an India-Pakistan cricket match during the Asia Cup has sparked a national outcry, with many questioning the logic of engaging in sports diplomacy with a country accused of harboring terrorism. The match, set to take place in the UAE, comes at a time when India has severed nearly all diplomatic and cultural ties with Pakistan following repeated terror attacks. From Pulwama to the recent Pahalgam incident, the shadow of terrorism looms large over Indo-Pak relations. Critics argue that playing cricket with Pakistan sends a contradictory message — on one hand, India calls out Pakistan as a state sponsor of terrorism, while on the other, it participates in friendly matches. Public sentiment is inflamed, with citizens, veterans, and political leaders questioning BCCI’s decision. Many recall previous actions where Pakistan’s YouTube channels were blocked, and artists were banned from working in India. They argue that cricket, being more than just a game, carries diplomatic weight and symbolism. While BCCI sources hint the match won’t be canceled, opposition is growing louder. The central question remains: What message are we sending by playing cricket with a nation we call Atankistan?
