Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 64320, member: 636"] Congress spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi congratulated the Indian women's cricket team for defeating Pakistan in an ODI World Cup match but referenced Operation Sindoor in his remarks. The Rajya Sabha member wrote on X that Pakistan excels at drama off the field but suffers disaster during competition. His comments may create tension within Congress as the party opposes sporting ties with Pakistan. India defeated Pakistan by 88 runs on Sunday in Colombo after setting a target of 248 runs. Indian women cricketers declined to shake hands with Pakistani counterparts after the match at R. Premadasa Stadium. Singhvi's Operation Sindoor reference contradicts his party's position, as Congress leadership previously criticized Prime Minister Modi for comparing the Asia Cup match to military action inside Pakistan.
