Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, asking him to convene a special session of Parliament to discuss the Pahalgam terror attack and demonstrate a collective resolve.

India has cited “cross-border linkages” to the horrific incident and promised severe punishment to those involved in the strike.

LoP in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, has also written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, asking for a special session of Parliament on the Pahalgam terror attack

India said that the “strong, unequivocal” support and solidarity extended by global leaders in the wake of the terrorist attack in Pahalgam is a testimony to the international community’s “zero tolerance” for terrorism.

“The Pahalgam terrorist attack represents the largest number of civilian casualties since the horrific 26/11 Mumbai attacks in 2008,” India’s Deputy Permanent Representative to the U.N., Ambassador Yojna Patel, said.

“Having been a victim of cross-border terrorism for decades, India fully understands the long-lasting impact such acts have on victims, their families and society,” Ms. Patel added.

Amid the Centre’s stern ‘leave the country’ order following the April 22 Pahalgam attack, authorities in Madhya Pradesh are in a fix over nine children in the state born to Pakistani fathers and Indian mothers,” an official said.

They are also looking for a solution in the case of a Pakistani man who applied for a Long Term Visa (LTV) on April 25 in Bhopal just before the Union government’s order, the official informed on Monday (April 28, 2025).

AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Monday criticised Pakistani politician Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari for his “blood would flow in rivers” remark, reminding him of the killing of his mother, Benazir Bhutto, by home-grown terrorists.

Mr. Owaisi also referred to former Pakistani cricketer Shahid Afridi as a “joker” for his statement on the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed the lives of 26 tourists.

During the night of 28-29 April 2025, the Pakistan Army resorted to unprovoked small arms firing across the Line of Control in areas opposite Kupwara and Baramulla districts, as well as the Akhnoor sector.

Soon after taking over the investigation of the Pahalgam terror case, the National Investigation Agency officials visited the wife of Bharath Bhushan, who was killed by terrorists, and gathered information related to the attack.

The NIA investigators spoke with Dr. Sujatha, Bhushan’s wife, at their home in Mathikere and recorded her statement about the attack and their visit in detail. The officials sought details about the attack on her husband, if the terrorists spoke to Dr. Sujatha and if so, what her response was and the physical features of the attackers.

Pakistan Defence Minister said on Monday (April 28, 2025), “a military incursion” by India was imminent in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack.

“We have reinforced our forces because it is something which is imminent now. So in that situation, some strategic decisions have to be taken, so those decisions have been taken,” Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif told Reuters in an interview at his office in Islamabad.
