Srinagar, July 29, KNT: National Conference president and former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Dr. Farooq Abdullah on Tuesday welcomed the elimination of the militants involved in the deadly Pahalgam attack, calling it a strong message that such acts of violence will never succeed in achieving their goals.
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a function in Srinagar, Abdullah said, “I have not seen them and I don’t know who they are. Only those people can identify them who have seen them. If they have been killed, it is a good thing. They have got a lesson that terrorism will never succeed.”
His comments come in the wake of reports that the security forces have neutralised those responsible for the April 22 attack in Pahalgam, where 26 tourists were gunned down in a shocking act of violence that rocked the Valley and the nation.

While refraining from confirming the identity of those killed in the operation, Abdullah said justice must be done, and those who spread terror and target innocents have no place in any civilised society. “Anyone who sheds the blood of innocents deserves no mercy,” he said. [KNT]
