However, her post backfires as many Twitterati trolled her for not mentioning Pakistan.
Here’re some of the tweets
सानिया जी, आप शहीदों के सम्मान को लेकर टिप्पणी करें अथवा ना करें । उससे देश की भावना को फ्रख नहीं पड़ता । लेकिन फिर भी अगर आप पोस्ट करते है तो शांति की बात अब इस समय बिल्कुल भी ना करे । जब देश का खून उबाल मार रहा हो और आक्रोशित हो ।
