KINS Desk
Srinagar, April 28 (KINS): Undeterred by the recent terror attack that claimed 26 lives, actor Atul Kulkarni visited Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, and urged people not to abandon the Valley in fear.
Kulkarni, who traveled to Pahalgam just days after the tragic incident at Baisaran meadow, sent a strong message of resilience and solidarity. “Kashmir humara hai (Kashmir is ours),” the actor said, emphasizing that terrorism should not dictate the spirit of the people or deter them from visiting Kashmir.
Speaking to reporters during his visit, Kulkarni as per news agency KINS said, “We must continue to stand with Kashmir and its people. Cancelling our plans to come here only helps those who want to spread fear. We must not let terror win.”
His visit is being seen as a symbolic act of defiance against those trying to disrupt peace and tourism in the region, which has long been hailed as “Paradise on Earth.”
The attack on April 22, in which gunmen opened fire on a group of tourists, has been described as one of the deadliest acts of terrorism in Kashmir since the abrogation of Article 370.
Local residents welcomed his gesture, thanking him for supporting tourism and showing solidarity with the people of Jammu and Kashmir at a difficult time.(KINS)
