Rayudu clarifies 'eye-for-eye' social media post after backlash
Former Indian cricketer Ambati Rayudu faced social media criticism for his peace message amid India-Pakistan tensions. His call for compassion was viewed by some as insensitive, contrasting with strong condemnations from cricketers like Virender Sehwag and Shikhar Dhawan, who lauded India's armed forces. The reactions followed reports of Pakistan firing missiles, all successfully intercepted by India's defence systems.
