The Union home minister informed the nation about the breakthrough from the Lok Sabha during a debate on Operation Sindoor, saying those, who murdered our citizens in the ghastly Pahalgam terror attack, have been killed.

“In joint Operation Mahadev, the Indian Army, CRPF, and J&K Police have neutralised three terrorists who were involved in the Pahalgam terror attack,” Shah had said while addressing the lower house of Parliament.

“Innocent civilians were killed in front of their families by asking their religion. I condemn this barbaric act. I express my sympathies to the families who lost their loved ones,” he added.

Prior to Operation Mahadev, the Indian Armed Forces launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 as a decisive military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 people were killed.

The Indian Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, leading to the killing of hundreds of terrorists.

Shah, on August 22, met the family of N Ramachandran, who was killed in the Pahalgam terror attack. After consoling his family, the minister reaffirmed the government’s tough stance against terrorism, stressing that there would be “no mercy for anyone who dares to commit such crimes.”

“Today, in Kochi, I visited the family of the late Ramachandran Ji, whom we lost to the dastardly Pahalgam attack. Met his wife, Smt. Sheila Ji and also their daughter, Aarathi R. Menon. Inquired about their well-being and assured them that the nation stands firmly with them. Through ‘Operation Sindoor’ and ‘Operation Mahadev’, the Modi government has punished the perpetrators of the Pahalgam attack. No mercy for anyone who dares to commit such crimes,” he had posted on X.
