Shinde Leaves for Srinagar to Help Maha Tourists Stuck in J&K
In a bid to expedite the process of bringing back Maharashtra tourists who are stuck in Kashmir after the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Maharashtra Deputy CM Eknath Shinde on Wednesday left for Srinagar. According to an official, Shinde will meet the stranded tourists, assess the local situation, and supervise the logistics related to their return.
Shinde reportedly left for Srinagar in a private aircraft, marking his second visit to the region in the past week. His first visit was in the aftermath of the terrorist attack, which claimed the lives of three labourers from Maharashtra. The attack has left many more stranded in the region, with authorities working to ensure their safe return.
Shinde’s visit comes as a welcome relief to the stranded tourists and their families back in Maharashtra. The Deputy CM has been actively engaged in the efforts to bring back the tourists, and his visit to Srinagar is seen as a significant step in this direction.
During his visit, Shinde is expected to meet with the local authorities, including the administration and security personnel, to get a firsthand account of the situation on the ground. He will also meet with the stranded tourists to understand their concerns and requirements, and ensure that necessary arrangements are made for their comfortable and safe return.
The logistics of the tourists’ return are likely to be a major focus of Shinde’s visit. With several tourists still stuck in the region, the Deputy CM will need to work with the local authorities to ensure that necessary arrangements are made for their transportation, accommodation, and other requirements.
Shinde’s visit is also expected to provide a boost to the morale of the stranded tourists, who have been facing a harrowing experience in the wake of the terrorist attack. The attack has left many of them traumatized, and Shinde’s visit is seen as a symbol of the state government’s commitment to their safety and well-being.
The attack in Pahalgam, which occurred on October 11, has left many shaken. The three labourers who lost their lives in the incident were from Maharashtra, and their families are still reeling from the news. The attack has also left many other tourists stranded in the region, with uncertainty and fear gripping their minds.
Shinde’s visit comes at a critical time, when the situation in Kashmir is still volatile. The region has been facing unrest in recent months, with several incidents of terrorist attacks and stone-pelting reported. The attack in Pahalgam has added to the sense of unease, and Shinde’s visit is seen as a necessary step to reassure the stranded tourists and their families.
In a statement, Shinde said that he was committed to ensuring the safe return of the stranded tourists, and would leave no stone unturned to achieve this goal. He also assured the tourists that the state government was working tirelessly to ensure their safety and well-being, and would provide all necessary support to facilitate their return.
The Maharashtra government has been actively engaged in efforts to bring back the stranded tourists, and has been working closely with the Jammu and Kashmir administration to ensure their safe return. The government has also set up a helpline to assist the tourists, and has been providing them with necessary guidance and support.
Shinde’s visit to Srinagar is seen as a significant step in this direction, and is expected to provide a boost to the morale of the stranded tourists. As the Deputy CM works to expedite the process of bringing back the tourists, the people of Maharashtra can take heart from the fact that their government is committed to their safety and well-being.
