    PRESS RELEASE

    Supreme Court of India condemns the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir

               The Supreme Court of India has expressed its deep anguish and condemned the cowardly terrorist attack on tourists in Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir yesterday. The full Court unanimously adopted a resolution today condemning the act of terrorism.

               The Court in its resolution stated that –

               “This diabolical act of mindless violence has shaken the conscience of all and is a stark reminder of the brutality and inhumanity that terrorism unleashes.

               Supreme Court of India pays its respectful tribute to the innocent lives snuffed out brutally and prematurely while also expressing its heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families. May the departed souls rest in peace and may those who were injured recover soon. The nation stands with the victims and their families in this hour of indescribable grief.

              The attack on tourists, who were merely enjoying the natural beauty of the Crown Jewel of India i.e. Kashmir, is undoubtedly an affront to the values of humanity and the sanctity of life and this Court strongly condemns the same.”

               Honourable Judges, lawyers, members of the staff and all other persons present in the Court and in the Registry observed two minutes silence expressing solidarity with the victims as well as their bereaved families.
