After the surprise of Operation Sindoor earlier this month, people across India aren’t taking any 'mock drill' news lightly anymore, and social media is proof. It all started when the Ministry of Home Affairs reportedly asked border states like Gujarat, Rajasthan, Punjab, and Jammu & Kashmir to gear up for a mock drill on May 29. This drill is part of a civil defence exercise, but the timing has triggered memories of May 7, when what was expected to be just a mock drill turned into a full-blown strike across the border.

Yes, on May 7, while everyone was preparing for a routine drill, India launched Operation Sindoor, a powerful and precise military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 innocent lives. Nine terror-linked sites in Pakistan and PoK were reportedly hit with measured and non-escalatory strikes, announced at 1:44 AM.

Now, with another mock drill scheduled for May 29, netizens are not keeping calm. Instead of panic, though, people have unleashed their creativity, and the internet is bursting with memes, jokes, and sarcastic predictions. From “Pichli baar mock drill bola tha, Sindoor kar diya” to “Pakistan ki kasam, sirf drill hogi is baar”, social media users are turning the announcement into a full-blown comedy show.
