“Pray for elimination of terrorism from our country”: Maulana Khalid Rasheed on Pahalgam terror attack

Lucknow Eidgah Imam, Maulana Khalid Rasheed Farangi Mahli on Friday prayed for the speedy recovery of all the injured in Pahalgam terror attack and appealed to all mosques and imams to organise a special dua to pray for the elimination of terrorism from the country.

“On the occasion of Friday Jumma today, we have appealed to all the mosques and imams to organise a special dua to pray for the elimination of terrorism from our country and the entire world, especially of those involved in this barbaric attack, and for the speedy recovery of all the injured,” Mahli told news agency.

Terrorists attacked tourists at Baisaran meadow in Pahalgam on April 22, killing 25 Indian nationals and one Nepali citizen while leaving several others injured.

The Indian Army is on a high alert, launching several search operations to neutralise the terrorists following the attack.

The Central government announced several diplomatic measures, such as closing the Integrated Check Post (ICP) at Attari, suspending the SAARC Visa Exemption Scheme (SVES) for Pakistani nationals, giving them 40 hours to return to their country, and reducing the number of officers in the High Commissions on both sides.

“The Defence/Military, Naval and Air Advisors in the Pakistani High Commission in New Delhi are declared Persona Non Grata. They have a week to leave India. India will withdraw its own Defence, Navy, and Air Advisors from the Indian High Commission in Islamabad. These posts in the respective High Commissions are deemed annulled. Five support staff of the Service Advisors will also be withdrawn from both High Commissions,” Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said.

He also mentioned that the Integrated Check Post at Attari will be closed with immediate effect. India also halted the Indus Waters Treaty signed in 1960 in the wake of the Pahalgam attack.

The incident has sparked nationwide outrage, with widespread protests erupting across the country, demanding stricter action against Pakistan over the Pahalgam attack.
