Among those present are the family members of Colonel Sofiya Qureshi, who have joined the Sindoor Samman Yatra to pay their respects and stand in solidarity with the tribute.

Indian Army officer Col Sofiya Qureshi’s parents, Taj Mohammad and Halima Qureshi, along with her brother Sanjay Qureshi and twin sister Shyna Sunsara, were among the thousands of people who gathered along the road from Harni Airport to see the Prime Minister’s arrival and enjoy the cultural programs held in his honour.

Speaking to reporters after the roadshow, Colonel Qureshi’s sister, Shyna Sunsara, shared her emotions: “We felt good meeting PM Modi. It is a matter of great honour to meet him. When he held the roadshow, it was a moment of pride. He has done a lot for women’s empowerment. It was a different kind of happiness.”

Proudly recalling their bond, she added, “Colonel Sofia Qureshi is my twin sister. She is 15 minutes older than me. When your sister does something for the country, it inspires not only me but others as well. She is no longer just my sister but the country’s sister as well.”

Chants of ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’, ‘Modi-Modi’, and ‘Vande Mataram’ echoed through the streets, with people waving the national flag.

Several participants donned costumes paying tribute to the Indian Armed Forces.

This marks PM Modi’s first visit to his home state following India’s recent military action targeting terror hubs in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).

Members of the African community welcomed the Prime Minister, holding placards with quotes such as ‘Peace was attacked; India roared back with justice’ and ‘India’s courage is the light that ends the evil of terrorism’.
