People in J&K hold candle march to condemn attack on tourists
A candle march was held in Handwara, Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday to condemn the recent terrorist attack on tourists in Pahalgam, which has reportedly claimed the lives of 27 people. The peaceful protest was organized by the local residents, who came together to express their outrage and grief over the senseless violence.
The candle march began at 5:30 pm, with hundreds of people participating in the silent protest. The marchers carried candles, placards, and banners, with slogans written in bold letters. The crowd chanted slogans such as “Wake up Pakistan” and “Stop killing innocent people” to condemn the attack and to hold Pakistan accountable for the terrorist activities in the region.
The attack on the tourists in Pahalgam was carried out by the terrorist outfit, The Resistance Front, which has claimed responsibility for the attack. The group has been actively involved in violence in the region, and this attack is just the latest in a series of brutal incidents.
The people who participated in the candle march were visibly upset and angry over the attack. Many of them had lost loved ones in previous terrorist attacks, and they were determined to make their voices heard. The march was a symbol of solidarity and unity, as people from different backgrounds and communities came together to condemn the violence.
The local residents also expressed their frustration and disappointment over the lack of action from the government to stop such attacks. They feel that the government has not done enough to prevent these attacks and to protect the lives of innocent people.
“We are tired of these attacks and the government’s inaction,” said a local resident, who wished to remain anonymous. “We want the government to take concrete steps to stop these attacks and to provide security to the people.”
The candle march was a powerful symbol of the people’s determination to stand up against terrorism and to demand justice for the victims. It was a call to action, urging the government to take immediate action to stop the violence and to protect the people.
The attack on the tourists in Pahalgam was a tragic reminder of the ongoing crisis in Jammu and Kashmir. The region has been plagued by violence and terrorism for decades, and the people are tired of the senseless bloodshed.
The government has promised to take action to stop the violence and to protect the people, but little has been done to address the root causes of the problem. The people are frustrated and disillusioned, and they are demanding action from the government to stop the violence.
In the meantime, the people of Handwara will continue to hold candle marches and other peaceful protests to condemn the attack and to demand justice for the victims. They will not be silenced, and they will continue to fight for their rights and for a peaceful resolution to the crisis in Jammu and Kashmir.
