Terrorists struck again in Jammu and Kashmir, killing a non-Kashmiri youth in Shopian. They shot dead the young migrant worker from Bihar, leaving his body on the roadside. Local people discovered the body on Friday morning.
Security forces swiftly responded, cordoning off the area and launching a search operation. They recovered the youth’s body and sent it to the hospital.
Omar Abdullah’s oath-taking as Jammu and Kashmir’s chief minister just two days prior has been marred by this incident. Terrorists are targeting Hindus and non-Kashmiris, perpetrating senseless killings in areas like Anantnag, Pulwama, and Poonch.
Authorities are taking measures to boost security, deploying additional troops and establishing village defense committees. However, they must take more decisive action to curb terrorism and protect innocent lives.
