In a tragic incident, Kaustubh Gunbote and Santosh Jagdale were killed by terrorists in Pahalgam, leaving their families and community in grief. Sangita Gunbote recounted the horrifying moments, including their desperate attempt to appear Muslim to avoid being targeted.

This is the biggest operation launched by any of the security agencies in or around Chhattisgarh this year, an official said.

Indian Muslims across major cities strongly condemned the Pahalgam terror attack, wore black armbands during Friday prayers, and demanded strict action against the perpetrators.
