Early Times Report

JAMMU, Apr 28: Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly on Monday passed a resolution condemning the recent heinous terrorist attack at Baisaran Pahalgam.
The resolution, moved by Deputy Chief Minister, Surinder Kumar Choudhary, was put to voice vote by Speaker, Abdul Rahim Rather and subsequently passed unanimously.
The resolution read, “This House unequivocally condemns the heinous, cowardly act that resulted in the loss of innocent lives. Such acts of terror are a direct assault on the ethos of Kashmiriyat, the values enshrined in our Constitution and the spirit of unity, peace and harmony that have long characterized Jammu & Kashmir and our Nation.
This House stands in full solidarity with the victims and their families. We extend our deepest condolences to those who have suffered irreparable loss and affirm our collective resolve to share in their grief and support them in their hour of need.
This House salutes the supreme sacrifice of Shaheed Syed Adil Hussain Shah, who, while bravely attempting to save the tourists, laid down his life. His courage and selflessness embody the true spirit of Kashmir and shall serve as an enduring inspiration for future generations.
This House commends the people of Jammu & Kashmir for their extraordinary display of unity, compassion and resilience in the aftermath of the attack. The peaceful demonstrations across the towns and villages and the spontaneous outpouring of moral and material support towards the tourists, reaffirm the people’s steadfast commitment to peace, communal harmony and the rule of law. This House endorses the diplomatic measures announced by the Union Government on 23rd April 2025, after the meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security.
This House is mindful of the sinister designs behind the selective targeting of the victims of this attack. It appeals to all the sections of the society and in particular the media to not fall victim to this sinister plot by irresponsibly inflaming passions. The need to remain united in the face of this attempted division cannot be overemphasized.
This House earnestly appeals to the Governments of all the States and Union Territories of India to ensure the safety, dignity and well-being of Kashmiri students and citizens residing or traveling outside Jammu & Kashmir, taking necessary measures to prevent any incident of harassment, discrimination or intimidation.
This House calls upon all the political parties, religious and community leaders, youth organizations, civil society groups and media houses across the nation to maintain calm, reject violence and divisive rhetoric and work collectively to uphold peace, unity and constitutional values”.
The resolution further read, “The Legislative Assembly of Jammu & Kashmir reaffirms its unwavering commitment to foster an environment of peace, development and inclusive prosperity for all its citizens and resolutely defeat the nefarious designs of those who seek to disturb the communal harmony and progress of the nation and of Jammu and Kashmir”.
Speaking on the resolution, Leader of Opposition, Sunil Sharma, while paying homage to the victims of Pahalgam attack, said that J&K is a paradise on earth, where people come to spend joyful moments of their life. He said that entire humanity has been shattered by this inhuman act and the whole country is in grief and shock.
Sharma said that a united voice in this difficult time is necessary to make these nefarious designs of terrorists unsuccessful. He added that no words can compensate for the loss of victim families of this horrible tragedy but the House wants to convey to the nation that people of Jammu and Kashmir are badly hurt by this inhuman incident and share their sympathies with all the victim families from across the country. He also said that J&K people have given befitting reply to the terrorists by exhibiting brotherhood and unity while condemning this heinous act.
The Deputy Chief Minister said that J&K people are short of words to denounce this cowardly act. He added that Kashmiris are known for hospitality and communal harmony across the country and globe.
Ghulam Ahmad Mir, while condemning the attack, said that people from every walk of life and every corner of J&K showed that these kinds of acts are despicable. He added that we need to remain united in this difficult time and send a strong message across the world that we will not let these nefarious designs of terrorists succeed.
Sajad Gani Lone said that people from every area and section condemned this cowardly and brutal act. He added that acceptance of this kind of violence has been completely negated by the people of Kashmir valley.
Mohammad Yousuf Tarigami said such a heinous act cannot be explained in words saying that terrorists have no religion.
Altaf Ahmad Wani (Kaloo) strongly condemned the attack saying that Pahalgam is known as one of the peaceful areas of Kashmir. He said that after 25 years such an incident has happened in Pahalgam and words are less to condemn this brutal act. He added that people of Kashmir, especially Pahalgam, need to be appreciated for providing selfless services and care to the injured tourists and others.
Muzaffar Iqbal Khan said no words are enough to condemn this cowardly act which has affected the whole humanity.
Waheed ur Rehman Parra said that this is a crime against humanity and not only a terrorist act. He added that people from all walks of Kashmir condemned it and showed that we are against terrorism through a series of peaceful rallies and candle light marches. He also sought martyr status for the victims of Pahalgam attack.
Shabir Ahmad Kullay also condemned this inhuman act in strongest words and paid glowing tributes to the victims of Pahalgam attack.
Sheikh Khursheed, while paying homage to the victims, said that memorials for victims should be established in Pahalgam. He requested all the MLAs to contribute for this memorial out of their salaries.
Mehraj Malik also condemned the gruesome attack and said that we need to be united and not let just four persons disturb the social fabric of our country.
The house was later adjourned sine die by the Speaker.
