Speaking to ANI, Raina said, “After Pakistan’s cowardly attack in Pahalgam, the entire Jammu and Kashmir has taken to the streets. The whole of India is expressing grief and anger. This terrorist attack has been strongly condemned worldwide.”
Highlighting the political response to the incident, Raina mentioned that a special session of the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly was convened, during which a resolution condemning the terrorist attack in Pahalgam was passed. He further added that the people of Jammu and Kashmir have united in rejecting Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
“A special session of the J&K Assembly was convened, and the terrorist attack in Pahalgam was condemned. A resolution against this terrorist attack was passed in the J&K Assembly. The people of Jammu and Kashmir have come together in one voice to reject Pakistan’s terrorism. They have said they will not stand for Pakistan-sponsored terrorism at any cost.
