A software engineer from Karnataka, Prasanna Kumar Bhat, recounted a harrowing experience of survival during a terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed 26 lives on April 22.

Published: Apr 27 2025, 7 pmeznews.inThe BJP has criticized Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar for linking the recent Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed 26 lives, to "unresolved questions of the Partition," deeming his remarks insensitive.

Aiyar, speaking at a book launch, questioned whether Muslims in India feel accepted today and highlighted the enduring consequences of Partition. In response, BJP officials asserted that the Congress party bears responsibility for the tragedy of Partition and accused Aiyar of failing to hold Pakistan accountable for its role in terrorism.

Published: Apr 27 2025, 7 pmeznews.inA recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, which resulted in the deaths of 26 tourists, has reignited national anger and highlighted a persistent pattern of violence linked to Pakistan-based Islamist groups, notably Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). This incident, reminiscent of numerous previous attacks over the past three decades, has prompted calls for a robust response from India. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has vowed to pursue and punish those responsible, indicating that military action may be on the table.

The ongoing deterioration of India-Pakistan relations complicates the situation, with both nations mirroring each other's diplomatic actions. Ultimately, India faces the dual challenge of addressing immediate security threats while fostering long-term stability in Kashmir and maintaining international support against terrorism.
