The attack, he said, not only targeted civilians but also struck at the very soul of Kashmir and all that it stands for.
"Yet, Kashmir has remained resilient and united in its pursuit of peace, justice and the complete eradication of terrorism. As we pay homage to those we lost, we also look ahead with hope for a future free from such acts of terror," the DPAP chief added. (KNS)
