Terming the Pahalgam attack as a reflection of the desperation of "those who patronise terrorism", PM Modi said, "At a time when peace was returning to Kashmir, schools and colleges were bustling with activity, democracy was getting stronger, tourism was on the rise and new opportunities were emerging for the youth, the enemies of Jammu and Kashmir and the country did not like this. The terrorists want to destroy Kashmir once again."
'Pahalgam Attack hurts every Indian'
PM Modi said - There is deep pain in my heart. The terrorist incident in Pahalgam on 22 April has hurt every citizen of the country. Every Indian has deep sympathy for the victim families. No matter which state he belongs to, no matter which language he speaks, but he is feeling the pain of those who have lost their family members in this attack. I feel that the blood of every Indian is boiling after seeing the pictures of the terrorist attack.
'Every Indian's Blood Boils' over Pahalgam Attack
This attack in Pahalgam shows the desperation of those who patronize terrorism, shows their cowardice. At a time when peace was returning to Kashmir, there was a vibrancy in schools and colleges, construction work had gained unprecedented speed, democracy was getting stronger, there was a record increase in the number of tourists, people's income was increasing, new opportunities were being created for the youth. The enemies of the country, the enemies of Jammu and Kashmir, did not like this.
PM Modi's Mann ki Baat on Terror Strike
The terrorists and their masters want Kashmir to be destroyed again and hence they hatched such a big conspiracy. In this war against terrorism, the unity of the country, the solidarity of 140 crore Indians, is our biggest strength. This unity is the basis of our decisive fight against terrorism.
We have to strengthen our resolve to face this challenge before the country. We have to demonstrate our strong will as a nation. Today the world is watching, after this terrorist attack the whole country is speaking in one voice.
PM Expresses Nation's Anger
The anger that is felt by us Indians is felt all over the world. After this terrorist attack, condolences are pouring in from all over the world. Global leaders have called me, written letters and sent messages. Everyone has strongly condemned this heinous terrorist attack. They have expressed condolences to the families of the deceased.
The whole world stands with 140 crore Indians in our fight against terrorism. I once again assure the victim families that they will get justice, justice will be done. The culprits and conspirators of this attack will be given the harshest response.
