Following a terror assault that killed over 25 tourists in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam hill resort, the nation is in grief. The terrible event that occurred in Kashmir has been denounced by the whole country. A number of Bollywood artists have spoken out against the horrific acts of violence in the so-called “heaven on earth”. Shah Rukh Khan has already expressed his sympathies to the affected families on social media and referred to the terror assault as an “inhumane” crime.

“Words cannot express the sadness and anger at the treachery and inhumane act of violence that has occurred in Pahalgam,” Shah Rukh said on social media. One can only turn to God at such times, offer prayers for the affected families, and convey my sincere condolences. May we, as a country, join together, be strong, and bring this horrible deed to justice.”

Other players’ responses to the terror assault in Pahalgam
The announcement also prompted reactions from a number of other actors. “I am deeply shocked and horrified by the brutal terrorist attack in Pahalgam,” actor and director Farhan Akhtar remarked. It is imperative that this senseless act of violence against innocent people be strongly denounced since it is completely unacceptable. I express my deepest sympathies to the families of the deceased and my solidarity with the people of Kashmir during this terrible period.”

“Hello, Shanti. My sympathies. Astonished and furious. There are no words to describe the pain. Strength and prayers for the victims. “UNITE and recognise the real enemy,” Raveena Tandon wrote.

Alia Bhatt, an actress, also denounced the assault on her countrymen. Together with co-star Sharvari, the actress recently filmed Alpha in the Valley, her next movie.

Regarding the terror attack in Pahalgam
On Tuesday, a terror incident occurred in the Pahalgam hill range in the Anantnag region of Jammu and Kashmir. Terrorists in the valley shot and killed more than 20 people, including two Europeans and Indians.

Around 2:30 p.m., two to three terrorists in army fatigues reportedly opened fire on visitors riding horses in the Baisaran region. Due to the lack of a motorable road, visitors usually ride horses to Baisaran, a tiny meadow 3–4 kilometres from the Pahalgam market.

The PM convenes a high-level meeting.
Earlier, Union Home Minister Amit Shah was instructed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to take all necessary action. Shah said that he will go to Srinagar to conduct a high-level security review meeting after briefing the prime minister.

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh described the incident as “highly reprehensible,” while Congressmen Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi urged the government to take swift action.
