New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said that India will never bow to any form of terror and added that the heinous designs of terrorists will never succeed. Taking to social media, PM Modi remembered the innocent lives lost in the April 2025 terror attack.
“Remembering the innocent lives lost in the gruesome Pahalgam terror attack on this day last year. They will never be forgotten. My thoughts are also with the bereaved families as they cope with this loss,” said PM Modi.
The Prime Minister said that as a nation, India stands united in grief and resolve. “India will never bow to any form of terror. The heinous designs of terrorists will never succeed,” said the Prime Minister.
2025 Pahalgam Attack
The 2025 Pahalgam terror attack took place on April 22 in Kashmir’s Baisaran valley when a group of Pakistan-backed terrorists attacked terrorists and shot them from point blank range after asking about their religion. A total of 26 people lost their lives in the terror attack which later turned into a wider India-Pakistan confrontation.
Just a day after the terror attack, India downgraded diplomatic ties with Pakistan and suspended the Indus Water Treaty.
The Counter Measures
India had warned of stringent measures after the Pahalgam terror attack. On May 6-7, the Indian Armed Forces launched a coordinated surgical strike against terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The operation was named Operation Sindoor. Notably, India targeted at least nine terror sites, which included Bahawalpur. The Indian Air Force targeted Lashkar-e-Taiba, Jaish-e-Mohammed, and Hizbul Mujahideen facilities, killing over 100 terrorists.
