<p>Patna: The joy and happiness of Sushmita Devi of Kanti in <a href="https://www.deccanherald.com/tags/bihar">Bihar's </a>Muzaffarpur district knew no bounds when her grandson was born in the early hours of May 7, coinciding with India’s military action against terror camps in Pakistan and PoK. Code-named ‘<a href="https://www.deccanherald.com/tags/operation-sindoor">Operation Sindoor</a>’, Sushmita decided her grandson will be called ‘Sindoor’, a name which has generated patriotic fervour and sentiments of emotional unity across the nation.</p><p>“When ‘Sindoor’ grows up, he should know that he was born at a time when India took decisive action against the terror camps in Pakistan and destroyed the breeding ground of terrorists in the neighbouring country,” said Sushmita. “I would like my grandson to don the uniform and serve the nation after completing his studies,” she hastened to add.</p><p>Sushmita Devi is not alone. At least 12 parents in Muzaffarpur, one each in Katihar, Motihari and Sitamarhi have already named their new-born son or daughter as ‘Sindoor’ or ‘Sindoori’, while there is a mad scramble among others too to name the newborns after a military operation which has sent a message of national pride, hope and unity.</p>.Ops Sindoor did not kill civilians, India says, hits out at Pak for state funeral for terrorists.<p>Take, for example, the case of Katihar couple Rakhi and Santosh Mandal who have named their new-born daughter ‘Sindoori’. “The name ‘Sindoori’ will become an identity for our new-born daughter, besides arousing the patriotic sentiments,” said Rakhi hoping her daughter too “joins the armed forces once she grows up and serves the nation.”</p><p>Equally elated is Himanshu of Muzaffarpur who named his niece as ‘Sindoori’. “When she grows up, she will come to know she was born on the day of the airstrike and, therefore, rightly named ‘Sindoori’. This way we will celebrate her birthday as well as the anniversary of the airstrike together,” argued Himanshu.</p><p>“It’s true that many parents have named their new-born as ‘Sindoor’ or ‘Sindoori’ or ‘Sindoo’ on May 7, as a mark of patriotic sentiments,” said Dr Nehanjali of Sri Krishna Medical College and Hospital (SKMCH) in Muzaffarpur.</p>
