Aishanya Dwivedi, widow of a soldier killed in the Pahalgam terror attack, voiced her strong opposition to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)’s decision. She said playing cricket with Pakistan dishonors the sacrifices of those who lost their lives in terror incidents. Dwivedi stated that the board should have refused participation in the match.

Her remarks quickly gained traction on social media, where thousands of users echoed her sentiments. Netizens criticized BCCI for prioritizing cricketing ties over national sentiment, calling the move insensitive. Many demanded that India boycott all matches with Pakistan until terrorism is addressed.

The BCCI, however, has not responded officially to these concerns. With the match just days away, political leaders, sports analysts, and citizens continue to debate whether cricket should be kept separate from politics or serve as a stand against terrorism.
