India on Thursday slammed Pakistan for giving state funerals to terrorists and accused the neighboring country of glorifying terrorists who were killed in India strikes across nine terror hideouts as part of Operation Sindoor.

“… It’s also odd that funerals of civilians are being carried out by coffins wrapped in their national flag, and state honours are being awarded…,” said Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri during a press briefing on Wednesday.

“.. As far as we are concerned, the individuals eliminated at these facilities were terrorists. Giving terrorists state funerals, maybe a practice in Pakistan…,” he added.

Misri, displaying a photograph from the funeral, highlighted the presence of uniformed Pakistani Army and police personnel praying behind the coffins of the slain terrorists, questioning the message such an image sends.

Explained: From princes to President, the tradition of 21-gun salute at R-Day parade

The 21-gun salute at India's Republic Day parade is a tradition dating back to the British era, symbolizing the highest honor for the President and marking national celebrations. Originally performed with British-era 25-pounder guns, the salute now uses indigenous 105-mm Indian Field Guns to showcase Indian-made equipment. The 21-gun salute is synchronized with the national anthem and is also accorded to foreign heads of state and on special occasions like Army Day and Martyrs’ Day.
