Pahalgam/New Delhi/Shimla:
India has launched a blistering counter-offensive—diplomatically, economically, and strategically—after a brutal terrorist attack in Pahalgam claimed 26 innocent lives, including tourists from Haryana,Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, West Bengal, Maharashtra and a local horseman, Sayed Hussain, who died trying to protect them.
In Bihar PM Modi declared that the terrorists and their backers will face consequences beyond their imagination.
Sources confirmed that the Prime Minister today would convene an all-party meeting, where it is expected that they would unanimously resolve to give a “fitting and lasting” reply to Pakistan.
Intelligence reports squarely blamed Pakistan-backed terror modules for plotting the carnage to shatter peace in Kashmir and derail tourism.
What India Has Done So Far:
Indus Waters Treaty Suspended
Attari Border Closed Until Further Notice
Withdrawal of Indian diploma from Pakistan
Pakistani Nationals in India Ordered to Leave by May 1
Indian Citizens in Pakistan Asked to Return Immediately
No New Visas for Pakistanis Under SAARC
Operation TIKK Launched
Terror Infiltration Ko Khatm Karo (TIKK)” — a full-blown operation has been launched in J&K’s border districts. Army, CRPF, and BSF units are on high alert, with night raids, drone surveillance, and arrests already underway in Kupwara, Rajouri, and Baramulla.
Local Hero, National Grief
Horseman Sayed Hussain, a 34-year-old from Anantnag, died shielding tourists from gunfire.
“He shouted, ‘Don’t run toward the riverbank!’—he saved lives,” said Rina Mukherjee, a survivor from Kolkata.
Mass protests and candlelight marches erupted across Srinagar, Jammu, and Leh, with one resounding slogan:
“No more terror in Kashmir. Not in our name.”
-Voices from the Ground
“We’ve buried our son, but his courage will outlive this violence.”
— Imtiyaz Hussain, brother of the slain horseman
> “This was not an attack on a religion or region—it was an attack on Kashmiriyat.”
— Chief Minister of Jammu & Kashmir
What the World is Saying:
The New York Times: “A deliberate assault on India’s peace and tourism spine.”
BBC: “India retaliates with precision and purpose.”
Le Monde (France): “A shadow war re-emerges in the Himalayas.”
Japan Times: “India puts Pakistan on notice with a hybrid diplomatic strike.”
Al Jazeera: “Rising tensions in the valley as India cuts all lines with Islamabad.”
“We are acting against terror, not the people of Pakistan. The onus is on their leadership to clean up their backyard, said an official in PMO.
Opposition: ‘Nation First, But We Need Accountability’
Mallikarjun Kharge (Congress):
“The country must unite. But the government must answer how our borders were breached so easily.”
Mahua Moitra (TMC):
“Support the soldiers, but demand answers. Who let this slip?”
Defence Experts Weigh In
Gen. Ved Malik (Retd):
“The border’s just a line now. We must disrupt terror camps, not just defend bunkers.”
Maroof Raza, Defence Analyst:
“Tourism is the new soft target. Pakistan wants to bleed India economically and communally.”
Lt. Gen. Syed Ata Hasnain (Retd):
“This isn’t just war by guns—it’s war by perception. We must win both fronts.”
