Deadly Terror Attack in Jammu and Kashmir Claims 26 Lives, Amit Shah Visits Site.

A devastating terror attack unfolded in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, leaving the nation in shock and mourning. On a seemingly peaceful Tuesday afternoon, armed militants launched a brutal assault on a group of tourists, killing 26 people, including three residents from West Bengal. Several others were critically injured in the attack. By nightfall, *The Resistance Front* (TRF), a proxy group linked to Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba, claimed responsibility, citing it as retaliation against Indian security operations. The incident has raised concerns about cross-border terrorism and the persistent threat to the region’s peace.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah visited the site on Wednesday morning, offering condolences to the victims’ families and vowing swift justice. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has taken charge of the probe, working to trace the attackers and their networks. Meanwhile, political leaders and citizens nationwide have condemned the violence, emphasizing unity against terror.
Tourism operators fear the attack may impact the region’s recovering tourism industry, while local communities have shown resilience by supporting the affected families. This tragic event highlights the ongoing challenges in combating militancy in Jammu and Kashmir, underscoring the need for robust security measures, socio-economic development, and diplomatic efforts to ensure lasting peace. As India mourns the innocent lives lost, the call for justice and vigilance grows stronger.
