Mumbai: Extending condolences to the victims of the Pahalgam terror attack, Union Minister Piyush Goyal on Friday said the Central government will identify, trace and punish the terrorists along with their backers.
Recalling the remarks of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Goyal said, “I remember Atal Bihari Vajpayee said, cross-border and state-sponsored terrorism is a menace to civilised society. This is the moment when the entire country comes together and expresses the anger and collective commitment of the nation to give a fitting response to those responsible for this.”
Reminding people of the resolve taken by Prime Minister Narendra over the terror attacks, Goyal said, “We will identify, trace and punish the terrorists and their backers. This is the resolve of every Indian… We faced the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks and came back stronger. We gave a befitting reply to Pulwama attacks.”
The Union Minister also expressed condolences to all the victims of the Pahalgam terrorist attack.
“There is outrage across the country from Kargil to Kanyakumari against the attack on India’s very fabric. We are all united in grief, pray for the departed and wish for quick recovery of those injured. We pray that strength is bestowed upon those families who are deeply impacted by this heinous and criminal act of terrorists,” Goyal said.
“This is a very sad and condemnable incident. The whole nation is standing united to give a befitting reply to these terrorists,” he added.
The attack in Pahalgam occurred on Tuesday at Baisaran meadow, where terrorists targeted tourists, killing 25 Indian nationals and one Nepali citizen, and leaving several others injured. It was one of the deadliest attacks in the region since the 2019 Pulwama strike, which claimed the lives of 40 CRPF jawans.
