April 24 – In a powerful and emotional address following the heartbreaking terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22, Prime Minister Narendra Modi assured the nation that the perpetrators behind the senseless killing of 26 innocent lives, most of them tourists, will face justice—no matter where they hide or who supports them.
Standing on the soil of Bihar, PM Modi’s voice resonated with the pain and anger of a grieving nation. “Friends,” he said, “India will identify, track, and punish every terrorist and their backers. We will pursue them to the ends of the earth.” His words weren’t just political rhetoric—they carried the weight of millions of hearts shattered by the horror that unfolded in the tranquil valley of Kashmir.
With his tone firm but his heart clearly heavy, the Prime Minister paid tribute to the victims, saying, “The entire country is mourning. From Bengal to Karnataka, from Gujarat to Bihar—every Indian is united in grief and anger. Our sorrow knows no boundaries, and neither does our resolve.”
A moment of silence was held to honor the departed—sons, brothers, husbands—people who had come to enjoy the beauty of Kashmir, never knowing it would be their final journey. Families across India now carry a wound that words can hardly heal.
Without naming names, Modi sent a strong message to those across the border who continue to sponsor such violence. “Those who carried out this attack, and those who planned it—they will be punished beyond their imagination,” he said, reaffirming India’s zero-tolerance stance against terrorism.
The government has already initiated major diplomatic steps, including the downgrading of ties with Pakistan and a suspension of the historic Indus Water Treaty. These actions reflect a larger shift—not just policy, but the pain of a country that refuses to remain silent in the face of brutality.
In the end, PM Modi reminded us that terrorism may test our patience, but it can never break our spirit. “The strength of 140 crore Indians,” he said, “will crush the spine of terrorism and those who protect it.”
As India grieves, it also stands tall—united in pain, unwavering in purpose.
