“Govt will avenge every bullet…”: BJP leader Satish Upadhyay on Pahalgam terror attack


Authorities have demolished the homes of six active terrorists and their associates across Kashmir in the past two days following the attack on tourists in Pahalgam that killed 26 and injured several others.This action is part of a broader crackdown, with around 2,000 suspects detained across the Valley as raids and search operations continue in nearly all districts. The authorities have also identified 14 local terrorists actively operating in the UT.

The terrorists whose homes have been demolished so far include Adil Ahmad Thokar, Ahsan ul Haq Sheikh, Shahid Ahmad, Asif Sheikh, Haris Ahmad, and Farooq Teedwa.

“This is to create a deterrence to avoid any such attacks in the future. Many more actions will be taken in the coming days. A list of persons operating from Pakistan and across the LoC, who are in the Red List, is being finalized for similar action,” said a senior police official.

Following the 2019 policy change, the authorities stopped handing over the bodies of terrorists to their families, instead burying them in distant, designated graveyards, sometimes over 100 kilometers from their homes. The government later began attaching properties of terrorists and their suspected associates. The latest step-demolishing their homes-is seen as an effort to deter further attacks.


Family members of the terrorists, however, have accused authorities of punishing them for the actions of their relatives. In Srinagar, police conducted raids on the residences of 63 alleged overground workers of terrorists.
