'Justice To Be Served': Virat Kohli And Hardik Pandya Condemn Pahalgam Terror Attack, Express Solidarity With Victims

The entire nation is in a state of shock and mourning due to the cowardly and inhuman act carried out by terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir. Terror attacks on civilians and tourists speak a lot about the state of the Omar Abdullah government and how incompetent the law and order are in his government.

This unfortunate and brutal incident is not just an attack but an abomination that will remain alive in the hearts of every Indian, let alone those who lost their loved ones. The timing of the attack seems to be meticulously planned, as tourism in the Kashmir valley has seen a significant boost in recent years. It certainly looks like yet another desperation attempt by Pakistan to disrupt peace and harmony in India.

According to the initial probes, the terrorists crossed over from Kishtwar and reached Baisaran via Kokernag. They then rushed down the hill that surrounds Baisaran, a scenic tourist spot, and opened fire at unarmed civilians. It is being reported that  around 26 civilians have been killed so far, most of them being tourists.
