Rahul to Visit Srinagar on Friday to Meet Injured After J&K Attack
In the aftermath of the recent terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi is set to visit Srinagar on Friday to pay his respects to the victims and meet with those who have been injured in the attack. This comes after Gandhi cut short his US trip to attend an all-party meeting called by the Centre on Thursday, where he expressed his support for the government’s efforts to take action against the perpetrators of the attack.
The terror attack in Pahalgam, which took place on Wednesday, resulted in the deaths of at least 10 people, including a police officer, and left many more injured. The incident has sent shockwaves across the country, with many calling for swift and decisive action to be taken against those responsible.
Gandhi’s visit to Srinagar comes as a show of solidarity with the people of Jammu and Kashmir, who have been bearing the brunt of militant attacks in recent years. The Congress leader has a long history of visiting the region and meeting with those affected by violence, and his visit is seen as an important gesture of support and condolences.
During his visit, Gandhi is expected to meet with the families of those who have been killed or injured in the attack, as well as with medical staff and government officials who are working to provide aid and support to those affected. He will also likely pay his respects at the site of the attack and visit the hospital where the injured are being treated.
Gandhi’s decision to cut short his US trip and attend the all-party meeting on Thursday was seen as a significant show of support for the government’s efforts to address the situation in Jammu and Kashmir. Speaking at the meeting, Gandhi said that the Opposition was fully behind the government in its efforts to take action against those responsible for the attack.
“We are fully supporting the government in taking any action they deem necessary to deal with this situation,” Gandhi said. “We believe that it is essential to take strong and decisive action against those who are responsible for these attacks, and we will work with the government to ensure that this happens.”
Gandhi’s visit to Srinagar comes as the country is still reeling from the shock of the attack. The incident has sparked widespread outrage and condemnation, with many calling for the government to take swift and decisive action to prevent such attacks from happening in the future.
The Indian government has vowed to take all necessary steps to ensure the safety and security of its citizens, and has launched an investigation into the attack. The authorities have also stepped up security measures in the region, including deploying additional troops and increasing patrols in areas that are considered to be high-risk.
