Terror Attack on Amarnath Yatra

The Amarnath Yatra pilgrims were travelling in a bus from Balram to Mir Bazar in Anantnag, Jammu and Kashmir, when the terror attack happened.

Terrorists on Monday ( 10/7/2017)  night killed seven Amarnath Yatra pilgrims from Gujarat, including six women, and injured 32 others as they struck at a bus in Jammu and Kashmir’s Anantnag district, in the worst attack on the annual pilgrimage since the year 2000.


Seven of the pilgrims were killed and 32 were injured, the police said.The police and people in government said the bus driver had violated rules for the pilgrimage, which state that no yatra vehicle should be on the highway after 7pm as the security cover is withdrawn after that.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was personally monitoring the situation, strongly condemned the terror attack and answered that India will never get  down by such cowardly attacks  “Pained beyond words on the dastardly attack on peaceful Amarnath Yatris in J&K. The attack deserves strongest condemnation from everyone,” the prime minister tweeted.
