Second anniversary of Pulwama attack being observed
SRINAGAR (Web Desk) – The second anniversary of Pulwama attack is being observed today (Sunday).
Several Kashmiri leaders including Peoples Democratic Party President, Mehbooba Mufti and former J&K Chief Minister and National Conference vice president Omar Abdullah said that they have been “locked up in our homes with no explanation”.
Mehbooba Mufti said that this reign of suppression and terror in Kashmir is the unvarnished and unpalatable truth that the Indian government wants to hide from the rest of the world.
On February 14, 2019, at least 44 Indian paramilitary soldiers were killed in Indian-occupied Kashmir in one the deadliest attacks. The attack saw explosives packed inside a van rip through buses in a convoy of 78 vehicles carrying some 2,500 members of the paramilitary Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF).
Two blue buses carrying around 35 people each bore the brunt of the massive blast, heard miles away, around 20 kilometres (12 miles) from the city of Srinagar on the main highway to Jammu.
Kashmir has been divided between India and Pakistan since independence. Rebels have been fighting for an independent Kashmir, or a merger with Pakistan, for 30 years.
PAKISTAN REJECTS INDIAN ALLEGATIONS
Pakistan had strongly rejected insinuation by elements in the Indian government and media circles that seek to link the attack to the State of Pakistan without investigations.
"The attack in Pulwama in the Indian Occupied Jammu & Kashmir is a matter of grave concern," the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated in a press release.
"We have always condemned heightened acts of violence in the Valley."
