Pune: Minority Community Condemns Pahalgam Terror Attack, Calls for Unity
Nana Peth, 25th April 2025: Members of the Nana Bhavani Peth Minority Community gathered at AD Camp Chowk in Nana Peth on Friday to strongly protest the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, which claimed the lives of innocent citizens. The demonstration was marked by slogans such as “Pakistan Murdabad” and “Terrorism Murdabad”, reflecting the community’s deep anguish over the incident.
During the protest, tributes were paid to the civilians who lost their lives in the attack. Community members lit candles and observed a moment of silence in memory of the victims.
Speaking on behalf of the organizers, community representatives denounced the violence and made it clear that terrorism has no place in any religion.
“In Islam, killing an innocent person is considered a grave sin. The attackers may have Muslim names, but they do not represent our faith. These acts are part of a conspiracy to defame Islam and sow hatred in society. We refuse to let terrorism hijack our identity,” a spokesperson said during the protest.
The group emphasized that Indian
Muslims are neither outsiders nor second-class citizens, and that they stand with the nation in its fight against terrorism.
“We are not guests in this country. We are equal citizens, and we condemn this heinous act with all our heart. We demand the government act firmly and bring those responsible to justice with the harshest punishment.”
