NEW DELHI: The chilling videos of the terrorists firing tourists in Pahalgam has surfaced. The terrorists attacked tourists, including children in the Baisaran meadows of Gulmarg. The video shows the terrorists talking to the tourists and shooting some of them. The sounds of gunfire and the screams of the tourists can be heard clearly in the video. The most horrifying thing about the footage is that the bodies are scattered around the meadows.
Pahalgam, known as Mini Switzerland, is now literally a graveyard. There are soldiers carrying rifles everywhere and there is heavy security. The number of tourists in Pahalgam has increased with the onset of mid-summer in South India. More than ten thousand tourists come here every day. Most of those who had reached Kashmir have returned. They say they will never come here again. Those going to Kashmir have also canceled their trips.
Economic experts said that there is no doubt that the terror attack will really hit Kashmir. More tourists started coming here after the intensity of the terror attacks dropped. This was also the main source of income for the state. It will take a long time for Kashmir to recover from the current incident. Hotels and resorts were renovated at a huge cost in anticipation of the influx of tourists. Hotel owners say that they do not know how to recover all this and that they are in a debt trap.
