Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while addressing a public gathering in Madhubani, Bihar, on Thursday, expressed the nation's profound grief. He declared that those responsible for the Pahalgam terror attack, along with their accomplices, will face consequences beyond their wildest imaginations.
The terror attack, which claimed the lives of 26 innocent individuals and left ten others injured, has shaken the nation's spirit. The PM extended his gratitude to the international community and world leaders for their support during this challenging time. The Indian government stands steadfast in its pursuit of justice for the victims and their families.
In a proactive move, an all-party meeting was convened in the evening to discuss the aftermath of the attack. Meanwhile, funeral ceremonies for the deceased have commenced, with each family receiving a compensation of Rs 10 lakh from the Jammu and Kashmir government.
Who Masterminded the Pahalgam Terror Attack?
The Resistance Front (TRF), widely speculated to be a shadow group of the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), has taken responsibility for the attack. The TRF, designated as a terrorist organization by the Ministry of Home Affairs in January 2023, has been involved in terror propaganda, recruitment, infiltration, and smuggling operations from Pakistan into Kashmir.
The faces behind the attack have been sketched by security forces. The terrorists have been identified as Asif Fauji, Suleman Shah, and Abu Talha, also known by their code names Moosa, Yunus, and Asif, respectively. These men were allegedly involved in previous attacks on Poonch, according to officials.
