People in J&K Hold Candle March to Condemn Attack on Tourists
In a bold display of solidarity and outrage, people in Jammu and Kashmir’s Handwara came together on Tuesday to hold a candle march, condemning the recent terrorist attack on tourists in Pahalgam. The attack, which has reportedly claimed the lives of 27 people, has sent shockwaves across the country and beyond, with people from all walks of life expressing their deepest condolences to the families of the victims.
The candle march, which took place in the evening, saw a large number of people gathering in the streets, holding candles and chanting slogans against terrorism. The participants, including students, activists, and locals, chanted “Wake up Pakistan” and “Stop killing innocent people” as they marched through the streets, demanding an end to the senseless violence and bloodshed.
The attack, which was claimed by the terrorist outfit The Resistance Front, has left the nation in a state of grief and anger. The group, which has been linked to several other incidents of violence in the region, has been accused of carrying out the attack to disrupt the peace and tourism in the region.
The candle march was organized by local residents and activists, who came together to condemn the attack and demand justice for the victims. The participants held candles and placards, with messages such as “We stand against terrorism” and “Stop the violence” written on them. The march was peaceful, with no reports of any untoward incident or violence.
The attack on the tourists has sparked widespread outrage and condemnation across the country. Political leaders, civil society activists, and ordinary citizens have all come together to condemn the attack and demand an end to the violence. The incident has also sparked a national debate on the issue of terrorism and the need for more effective measures to prevent such incidents in the future.
The attack on the tourists has also highlighted the vulnerability of the tourism industry in Jammu and Kashmir. The region is known for its natural beauty and rich cultural heritage, and tourism is a major contributor to the local economy. The attack, however, has dealt a severe blow to the industry, with many tourists canceling their plans to visit the region.
The government has condemned the attack and promised to take all necessary measures to ensure the safety and security of tourists and locals alike. The authorities have also launched an investigation into the attack, with a team of police and security officials working to identify the perpetrators and bring them to justice.
As the nation comes together to condemn the attack and mourn the loss of lives, it is clear that the people of Jammu and Kashmir will not be intimidated by the forces of terrorism. The candle march, which was a powerful display of solidarity and defiance, is a testament to the resilience and determination of the people of the region.
In the words of one of the participants in the candle march, “We will not be silenced by the forces of terrorism. We will continue to stand together, united in our determination to end the violence and bring peace to our region.”
