J&K Terror attack and the reactions of its crusaders

On October 20, in Sonamarg area, Ganderbal district, an unexpected terror attack on civilians killed one doctor and 6 migrant workers. It was an open fire attack which took place at the construction work of a tunnel by The Resistance Front (TRF), Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba, who executed this unconscionable attack and the mastermind behind this incident was reported as the TRF chief Sheikh Sajjad Gul. The attack was targeted on both Kashmiri and non-Kashmiri people.

Following the terrible events at the Ganderbal & Gulmarg in J&K, the opposition leaders Rahul Gandhi and Chief Minister of J&K expressed their censorious arguments.

CM Omar Abdullah’s Acute Reaction

This provoked many condemns from the national and regional leaders and politicians of India. The Chief Minister of J&K, Omar Abdullah strongly opposed the inhuman attack over the “unarmed innocent people”. He criticised the central government that it is a wake up call for them to prepare the security more stronger. He added that it showcases the failure of the NDA government in the security policies. He added, If the central government doesn’t assure the safety of the citizens of J&K at the borders then, these types of violence will continue.

“Very Sad News of a dastardly and cowardly attack on non-local labourers at Gagangir in Sonamarg region. These people were working on a key infrastructure project in the area…. I strongly condemn this attack on unarmed innocent people and send my condolences to their loved ones.” – CM Omar on his X post.

Rahul Gandhi’s Dissatisfaction over the NDA government

The MP of Lok Sabha and the opposition leader of Indian National Congress, Rahul Gandhi slashed the NDA government and raised questions over the security lapses and disability which is repeated in Jammu and Kashmir. After the brutal attack on the 7 civilians on October 20, again the terrorists attacked the army vehicle which caused the death of two soldiers and two army porters in Gulmarg on October 24.

On his X account,

“The policies of the NDA government at the Centre have completely failed to establish security and peace in Jammu and Kashmir. Contrary to their claims, the reality is that the state is living under the shadow of danger due to continuous terrorist attacks on our soldiers and targeted killings of Civilians.

The government should immediately take accountability and restore peace in the valley at the earliest and ensure the safety of the army and civilians.

The news of the martyrdom of our brave soldiers in the cowardly attack on an army vehicle in Gulmarg, Jammu and Kashmir is extremely sad. Two porters also lost their lives in the attack. I pay my tribute to the martyrs and express my deepest condolences to all the bereaved families”

Rahul Gandhi’s condemn on the October 20 attack in his X account,

“The killing of many people, including a doctor and migrant labourers in the terror attack in Ganderbal, Jammu and Kashmir, is a very cowardly and unforgivable crime. I express my deepest condolences to all the bereaved families and hope for the speedy recovery of the injured.

This audacity of terrorists will never be able to break the faith of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. The whole country is united in this fight against terrorims”.

The other opposition party leaders are associated with Indian National Congress which includes Trinamool Congress, Aam Aadmi Party, Marxist Communist Party, and the other members of the INDIA alliance.
