WATCH: Former Pakistan cricketer Sahid Afridi conducts 'victory' rally against India

After making several controversial remarks amid India and Pakistan tension, former Pakistani cricketer Shahid Afridi conducted a rally against India, which is labeled as the 'victory' rally. Multiple videos of the rally are currently surfing on the internet. Afridi openly criticized Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the present situation and claimed that Pakistan has always been devoted to maintaining peace. 

As a reply to the Pahalgam terror attack incident, India conducted Operation Sindoor. As per reports, under this maneuver, the Indian armed forces targeted multiple prime locations in Pakistan, but at first, the Indian Air Force destroyed 9 militant locations in Pakistan and Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK).

The Board of Control for Cricket in India announced that India will not participate in any bilateral series with Pakistan. Over the years, for multiple terrorist-linked incidents, Pakistan was at the center of the stage, including the Pahalgam incident. But Afridi thinks differently, as he questioned, No one can blame his country without any strong evidence. According to the former cricketer, because of PM Modi, the reputation of India is at risk around the globe.

"You (Modi) do not allow cricket teams in Pakistan. There is so much hate generated there against us. What kind of mindset is it? Innocent children and civilians were martyred. Show me one proof that the Pakistani army targeted Indian civilians." Afridi questioned. 

Claims about army as well

He also made some huge claims about the latest clash between the two forces of nations. Afridi congratulated the Pakistan Army and said they got the upper hand. 

"Our army has shown who is stronger. They (Indians) underestimated us. They had no idea about our skills or the technology that we use. Try to engage in a war, and the world will come to know who is stronger. Pakistan has suffered from terrorism for a long time. We have lost many soldiers to it," Sahid Afridi said from the rally.
