Following the deadly April 22 terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam that killed 26 people, Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar ignited controversy by referring to the attackers as “freedom fighters.” India responded by suspending the Indus Waters Treaty and cancelling all Pakistani visas. Islamabad has termed India’s move as an “act of war,” warning of severe retaliation.
India Unleashes 7 Key Measures Against Pakistan Post Pahalgam Attack
In response to the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam that killed 26 people, India has taken seven significant retaliatory actions against Pakistan. These include suspending the Indus Waters Treaty, expelling Pakistani diplomats, halting visa services, closing the Attari border check post, and revoking SAARC visa privileges. Prime Minister Modi vowed to track and punish every terrorist and their supporters, declaring India’s intent to pursue justice to the “ends of the earth.”
In the wake of a devastating terror attack in Pahalgam that killed 28 tourists and injured several others, the Jammu and Kashmir government has announced ex-gratia payments—₹10 lakh for the families of the deceased, ₹2 lakh for the seriously injured, and ₹1 lakh for those with minor injuries. The attack took place in Baisaran, a tourist hotspot in Anantnag district, where militants opened fire on civilians. Security has since been heightened, and search operations are ongoing to apprehend the perpetrators.
Two terrorists were killed in an ongoing encounter with security forces in Jammu and Kashmir’s Baramulla district, foiling an infiltration attempt near the Uri Nala area. The operation comes just a day after a devastating terrorist attack in Pahalgam’s Baisaran meadow that claimed 26 lives. Prime Minister Narendra Modi cut short his state visit to Saudi Arabia in response, vowing that those responsible “will not be spared.”
At least 26 people, mostly tourists, were killed in a terror attack at Pahalgam’s Baisaran meadow in Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday, marking the deadliest strike in the Valley since Pulwama in 2019. The Resistance Front, linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, has claimed responsibility. Prime Minister Narendra Modi cut short his Saudi Arabia visit to return to Delhi and review the situation, while global leaders, including US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, condemned the attack.
