NEW DELHI: Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag took a sharp dig at Pakistan following its violation of the ceasefire agreement on Saturday. Despite agreeing to a truce with India just hours earlier, Pakistan reportedly targeted multiple locations in India.
Taking to his official handle on X (formerly Twitter), Sehwag shared a photo featuring the Hindi idiom: "k**e ki dum tedi ki tedi hi rehti hai," a popular saying that implies some things never change, no matter the effort made.
What makes this attack particularly significant is that it came just after Pakistan itself reached out to India earlier in the day, proposing a full ceasefire across land, air, and sea-a move later confirmed by ministry of external affairs.

Congratulations to both Countries on using Common Sense and Great Intelligence.”
Despite the ceasefire agreement, India continues to deal with persistent drone attacks from Pakistan.
However, most of these threats have been neutralised by India’s air defence systems.
The tension is constantly escalating as India’s strong retaliatory strike —‘Operation Sindoor’—launched on May 7, targeting terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
This operation was a direct response to the April 22 terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam, in which 26 people, mostly tourists, lost their lives in a Pakistan-backed assault.
