Pahalgam Massacre: 26+ Hindus Targeted in Brutal Terror Attack
PM Modi says those behind this heinous act will be brought to justice, will not be spared
At least 26 people have been killed, including a Navy officer, after terrorists struck a prime tourist location of Pahalgam in South Kashmir on Tuesday (April 22, 2025), government sources told The Media.
The wife of the young man who was killed in the Pahalgam attack has made a crucial revelation. She said that the terrorists asked her if she was a Muslim and shot her Husband in the forehead when she said she was a Hindu. She revealed this in front of the video while screaming. She could also be seen shouting and demanding to save her husband. The attack took place in the Baisaran valley, which is frequented by tourists.
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah though said the death toll is still being ascertained, and will be announced officially later. “This attack is much larger than anything we’ve seen directed at civilians in recent years,” he said on X.
Condemning the terror attack on tourists in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that those behind the heinous act will be brought to justice. Mr. Modi held a telephonic conversation with Union Home Minister Amit Shah following the terrorist attack, and directed him to take all necessary measures in response to the incident. Mr. Shah has left for Srinagar to hold an urgent security review meeting with all the agencies.
