After the ceasefire was announced between India and Pakistan, the former captain of the Pakistan Cricket team Shahid Afridi, organized a victory rally named "Youm-e-Tashakur” (Day of Gratitude) in Karachi, celebrating the victory of the Pakistan Armed Forces against India for their victory in "war." Speaking from the rally, he hailed his country's forces as "unbreakable" and blamed India for targeting "civilian areas" and mosques. In the speech, he said, "The world saw how strong our army is when we took action. When you challenge us, you’ll understand how tough you really are. You killed our innocent children and civilians."

Otherwise, why a mentally fit person would celebrate the defeat of his nation. pic.twitter.com/JkwdXy983z — Pranav Mahajan (@pranavmahajan) May 12, 2025 Well, one might feel pity for him for not being able to distinguish between terrorists and civilians. As India earlier clarified, they destroyed nine base camps of terrorist groups in Pakistan. And it was India who was neutralizing Pakistan's shelling and relentless drone attacks. It was Pakistan, too disheartened by the loss of terrorists, attending funerals and then giving respect as martyrs, and "answered" India by targeting innocent civilians at Poonch, Jammu and Kashmir, letting aside breeding terrorism and killing innocent tourists in Pahalgam. However, shelling in civilian areas sounded like "self-defense" for Pakistan. Not only that, he claimed that Pakistan has demolished several posts and infrastructure of India and has visual evidence of those. Never mind, most of the evidence provided by Pakistan has been proved fake, even taken from video games! But who cares!

While safeguarding his image in India, he just based the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's saying that he is the one misguiding a major mass of the country, while many have a good relationship with him and Pakistan. He mentioned how both countries have been improving their cricket infrastructure. He said, "With what face do you, within 10 minutes and without any investigation, blame Pakistan? I have played a lot of cricket in India. I have met Indian people everywhere — educated, respectful, and well-mannered individuals. But where is Modi taking this now? Modi defamed them in Canada, then in Qatar too. In England, in America — everywhere, because of Modi, Indian people are getting defamed. I believe this is wrong. India is progressing. We have always been happy to see that progress and success. Cricket is moving forward. We talk about cricket. But that doesn’t mean that if another nation wants to rise on its own merit, you start putting obstacles in their path!"
