Ganderbal (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], April 23 (ANI): On Wednesday, several members of the traders' association held a protest in the Kangan area of Ganderbal district in Jammu and Kashmir, following the recent Pahalgam terrorist attack.
The protestors held placards reading 'Stop Innocent Killings' and chanted slogans of "We want Justice!".
Additionally, in Srinagar, citizens gathered outside the Police Control Room, staging protests.
Speaking to ANI on Wednesday, one protester said, "This is mourning. All of Kashmir is mourning the death of humanity. We love tourists. They are our life. If a bullet hits them, it strikes our hearts. This attack has shattered our souls. This is not just murder--it is the murder of humanity, and we will not forgive it."
Protesters called on the government and security forces to take strong and immediate action. "We respect the police; we are with them. But the government must act. This is a time to fight this war together," said another protester.
Earlier, Jammu and Kashmir Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chief Mehbooba Mufti joined the protest in Srinagar, holding a placard that read, "This is an attack on all of us" in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack on tourists.
Speaking to reporters, Mufti says, "This was an attack not just by the terrorists on the people but also on our Kashmiriyat and us. I request that the Union Home Minister investigate the perpetrators so that they can be brought to justice. We are ashamed that this incident happened in Kashmir, and we stand with those affected."
The Dogra Front, various members of various Hindu organisations, along with BJP leaders, were also protesting against the Pahalgam terrorist attack on tourists.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) team also visited the terror attack site to support the Jammu and Kashmir Police in probing the attack. (ANI)
