After India’s successful Operation Sindoor targeting terror hubs in Pakistan and PoK, the global response has triggered a wave of emotion back home—especially after Turkey and Azerbaijan openly backed Pakistan. Their statements condemning India’s actions and expressing support for Pakistan have sparked widespread backlash on social media.
In particular, Azerbaijan—one of the most popular recent tourist destinations among Indians—faced strong criticism. Social media platforms are flooded with hashtags like #BoycottBaku and #BanTurkey, with users urging fellow Indians to avoid traveling to these nations. Several users also encouraged exploring Armenia and Greece instead, seen as rival nations to Turkey and Azerbaijan.
Tour companies and hospitality brands in India have begun to respond. A well-known villa rental company in Goa even announced that it will no longer accept bookings from Turkish citizens, stating solidarity with the Indian Armed Forces and the nation’s stance against terrorism.
As emotions run high, the message from Indian netizens is clear: countries that support forces against India will face public and economic pushback. Whether these online campaigns will result in broader travel or trade implications remains to be seen, but the sentiment is already trending across platforms.
