Yesterday morning came with a feeling of relief for the whole India when people came to know how Indian Air Force did a successful strike on the militant camps lying across the Line Of Control (LOC). This operation was carried out around 3.30am.
Just a few hours later, Bajaj Allianz placed its traffic-facing LED installations. Interestingly, these installations read URI’s famous dialogue ‘How’s the Josh?’ followed by ‘Jai Hind’.
Also, the general insurance brand took to social media and posted something similar to take advantage of buzz created by this attack. This was something very quick and smart for a brand which is not highly active on social media.
