Shinde Leaves for Srinagar to Help Maha Tourists Stuck in J&K
In a significant development, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has left for Srinagar to expedite the process of bringing back state tourists who are stuck in Kashmir after the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam. Shinde’s visit comes as a huge relief to the families of the stranded tourists, who have been facing immense difficulties in getting back to their home state.
According to reports, Shinde left for Srinagar in a private aircraft on Wednesday and is expected to meet the stranded tourists, assess the local situation, and supervise the logistics related to their return. The Maharashtra government has been working tirelessly to ensure the safe return of its citizens, and Shinde’s visit to Srinagar is seen as a crucial step in this direction.
The terrorist attack in Pahalgam, which took place last week, has left many tourists stranded and anxious to return home. The attack had claimed several lives and left many more injured, leading to a sense of fear and uncertainty among the tourists. The Maharashtra government had initially dispatched a team of officials to Jammu and Kashmir to coordinate with the local authorities and ensure the safe passage of its citizens.
However, the situation on the ground had become increasingly challenging, with the tourists facing difficulties in getting transportation and accommodation. This is where Shinde’s visit comes in, as he will be able to assess the situation firsthand and take necessary measures to facilitate the return of the stranded tourists.
Shinde’s visit to Srinagar is also seen as a symbol of the Maharashtra government’s commitment to the safety and well-being of its citizens. The government has been working closely with the Jammu and Kashmir administration to ensure the smooth return of the tourists, and Shinde’s visit is expected to further strengthen this partnership.
The news of Shinde’s visit to Srinagar has been greeted with relief and appreciation by the families of the stranded tourists. “We are grateful to the Maharashtra government for taking such prompt action to rescue our loved ones,” said a family member of one of the stranded tourists. “We are hopeful that Shinde’s visit will help resolve the issue and ensure the safe return of our family members.”
The terrorist attack in Pahalgam has sent shockwaves across the country, and the incident has highlighted the need for improved security measures in tourist destinations. The Maharashtra government has been working closely with the central government to ensure that such incidents do not recur in the future.
Shinde’s visit to Srinagar is a testament to the Maharashtra government’s commitment to the safety and well-being of its citizens. The government has been working tirelessly to ensure that the stranded tourists are returned safely, and Shinde’s visit is expected to further strengthen this effort.
As the situation in Srinagar continues to unfold, one thing is clear – the people of Maharashtra will not rest until their citizens are safely back home. Shinde’s visit to Srinagar is a significant step in this direction, and we can only hope that it will lead to a successful and safe return of the stranded tourists.
