Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Tuesday chaired a high-level meeting to discuss issues with the families affected by the recent Pahalgam terror attack on April 22.
Earlier last month, Sinha also handed an appointment letter to the wife of Syed Adil Hussain, a local Kashmiri who was gunned down by the terrorists while trying to save the lives of the tourists.
Terrorists on April 22 killed 26 civilians, mostly tourists, when they were enjoying their holidays in the Baisaran meadow of the Pahalgam area.
Sinha’s office posted on X, “Chaired a high-level meeting today to discuss issues concerning victim families whose loved ones were brutally killed by Pakistan-backed terrorists. Directed DCs & SSPs to reopen cases which were deliberately buried & file an FIR and ensure jobs are provided to NoKs on priority.”
The post further reads, “DCs and SSPs to free terror victim families’ property & land grabbed by terrorists or their sympathisers. I’ve directed the officers to identify those elements from the terror ecosystem who were involved in the killing of Common Kashmiris and are currently working in the government departments.”
“Special Cell to be established in LG Secretariat to address concerns of families. A similar cell is to be set up in the Chief Secretary’s office.
Every possible assistance would be provided to terror victim families & culprits roaming free for many decades will be brought to justice,” LG added.
