IAF killed Pilot wife asks Indian journalists, anchors to go to border and fight war instead of creating war hysteria

*Nashik: *

The wife of an Air Force officer who was killed when an Mi-17 chopper crashed in Jammu and Kashmir's Budgam last week has asked Indian TV anchors and journalists to go to border and gift war against Pakistan, in am open taunt over India media war hysteria.

She sent out a strong message to those who are using social media to vent their anger over the India-Pakistan tension.

Vijeta Mandavgane's husband, Squadron Leader Ninad Mandavgane, was cremated with full military honours in Maharashtra's Nashik on Friday.

Vijeta Mandavgane urged social media users to show restraint and not whip up sentiments.

"There is a lot happening on social media and on TV. Media acts responsible and sometimes don't. You shout slogans.

Instead of that, if you truly want to bring about change, for my Ninad, for WC Abhinandan and the martyrs, do a small thing.

Either join the forces or make your family members join the forces. If you can't, then at least bring about small changes around you to help the nation.

You can keep your surroundings clean, not litter the roads, not urinate in the public, not harassing girls," Ms Mandavgane told reporters. The message was widely shared online.
