Speaking on the issue, Abdullah emphasized that the people of Kashmir have come out openly against terrorism and the senseless murder of innocent lives.
In a statement, the Chief Minister said, “There must be a decisive fight against terrorism and its origin. People of Kashmir have come out openly against terrorism and the murder of innocent people. It’s time to build on this support…punish the guilty…but don’t let innocent people become collateral damage.”
Abdullah’s statement comes in the wake of a series of terror attacks in the region, which have claimed the lives of hundreds of innocent people. The latest attack in Pahalgam, a popular tourist destination in Anantnag district, was carried out by militants who targeted a bus carrying Hindu pilgrims. The attack has sparked widespread outrage and condemnation from all quarters.
The Chief Minister’s call for a decisive fight against terrorism is seen as a significant development in the region’s ongoing battle against militancy. Abdullah’s statement highlights the need for a comprehensive approach to tackle terrorism, one that involves not only military action but also addressing the root causes of extremism.
The people of Kashmir have been suffering at the hands of terrorism for decades, and the recent attacks have only added to their plight. The victims of terrorism, including civilians, security personnel, and politicians, have been subjected to unimaginable suffering and loss. The people of Kashmir have been demanding an end to terrorism and the restoration of peace and normalcy in the region.
The Chief Minister’s emphasis on building on the support of the people of Kashmir against terrorism is significant. The people of Kashmir have been victimized by terrorism for far too long, and it is time for them to take a stand against it. The Chief Minister’s call for punishing the guilty while avoiding collateral damage is also a welcome step. It recognizes that the fight against terrorism must be carried out with precision and sensitivity, so as to minimize harm to innocent civilians.
The recent attacks in Kashmir have also brought to the fore the issue of terrorism’s root causes. The Chief Minister’s statement highlights the need to address these root causes, which include poverty, unemployment, and political instability. The people of Kashmir have been demanding a political solution to the Kashmir issue, and the recent attacks have only added to their frustration.
The international community has also condemned the recent attacks in Kashmir. The United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres has called for an end to violence in the region and has urged all parties to work towards a peaceful resolution of the Kashmir issue.
