Congress’s Wadettiwar faces BJP, Sena attack over Pahalgam remark

Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule on Monday slammed senior Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar for questioning the survivors’ accounts that the Pahalgam terrorists asked the religion of the victims before killing them. Speaking to reporters on Monday, Wadettiwar said, “We are being told that the terrorists ascertained the religion of the victims and then killed them. Do terrorists have so much time to go close to someone and whisper in their ears? It is highly controversial because some are claiming such things did happen while others are denying it. Do not plan anything around it. Terrorists do not have caste or religion.” He added that the government must take responsibility of the attack. “Why was security not there?

Death was just a bullet away from Debasish Bhattacharya, an Assam University professor who was on a six-day Kashmir tour with his family, on the fateful day when terrorists gunned down tourists in Pahalgam on April 22. Born to a Hindu Brahmin family, Bhattacharya, while recounting the spine-chilling story of survival, told The Indian Express that he recited Islamic verse ‘Kalma’ as he saw four terrorists gun down (Hindu) men in front of his eyes. “Our Kashmiri tour was from April 21 to April 26, and we were to stay at Pahalgam for a day. On that day, we entered the arena called Mini Switzerland from the back side. Not many people were there on that side. We were all very relaxed. My wife was looking at some shawls while my son was walking around and I took some photos. Suddenly, I heard gu...

‘Most failed home minister’: Sanjay Raut demands Amit Shah resign over Pahalgam terror attack

Shiv Sena (UBT) Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut on Wednesday alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah were responsible for the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam on Tuesday.
