Justice Is Served! Families Of Pahalgam Terror Attack Victims Laud Operation Sindoor

The families of Pahalgam terror attack victims praised Indian army's Operation Sindoor, a retaliation act to avenge deaths of 26 tourists.

Kochi native Arathy, whose father N Ramachandran was gunned down before her eyes by the terrorists in Pahalgam, said there won't be any other suitable title for the strikes other than "Operation Sindoor".

There could have been no befitting reply other than this to terrorism which had killed our fathers, brothers or husbands in front of us, she told reporters in the Kerala city.

"So, a big salute to those who have done this operation. A big thank you to the government, the Prime Minister and the army people who have been working for this operation...who have been behind it continuously," she added.

"Let all Indians see a comfort in this operation. Let Operation Sindoor bring some comfort and relief to all the families of victims, including Himanshi (Narwal)," she added.

The family of Bharath Bhushan, hailing from Bengaluru, welcomed the air strikes.

Bhushan from Bengaluru, who was visiting Pahalgam with his wife and three-year-old son, was shot dead by terrorists on April 22. His wife, Sujatha, and their child survived the attack.

Appreciating government's effort, Bhushan's father Channaveerappa said, "The name, Operation Sindoor is correct because they (terrorists) had removed the tilak of many women. That's a good step. Government has done a good work and they have also taken the support of many countries."

"What Pakistan has done, their bad work. They are (sheltering) terrorists in their hideouts, giving them money. They are supported and trained by Pakistan's army. Modi has taken this message to different countries and explained Pakistan's dirty mode of operation," he added.

Sumathi, the mother of Manjunath Rao, another victim from Karnataka, welcomed the air strikes and said she had faith in PM Modi.

She said she did not want her son's "sacrifice" to go waste.
