Union Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday addressed Lok Sabha on Operation Sindoor and said in a joint Operation Mahadev, the Indian Army, CRPF and J&K Police have neutralised three terrorists who were involved in the Pahalgam terror attack.
He said the 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 said.
Suleman was A-category commander of Lashkar-e-Taiba
Amit Shah said Suleman was an A-category commander of the Lashkar-e-Taiba, Afghan was an A-category Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist and Jibran was also an A-grade terrorist. He said all three terrorists who killed our citizens in the Baisaran valley have been eliminated.
Amit Shah further added that all three terrorists - Suleman, Afghan and Jibran were killed in yesterday's operation and the people who used to supply food to them were detained earlier. “Once the bodies of these terrorists were brought to Srinagar, they were identified by those who were kept detained by our agencies," he said.
Amit Shah told the Opposition, "I was expecting that when they hear this news of killing of the Pahalgam terrorists, they will be happy, but instead they don't seem happy about it."
Security forces killed those who committed the killings
In Lok Sabha, Amit Shah added that soon after Pahalgam attack, he met the affected families. “I saw standing before me a woman who had been widowed just 6 days after her wedding- I can never forget that scene. I want to tell all families today that Modi ji neutralised those who sent the terrorists, and today our security forces killed those who committed the killings," he said.
He went on to add that the Operation Sindoor killed those who sent the terrorists and Operation Mahadev killed those who carried out the attack. “I thought that after hearing this news, there would be a wave of happiness in the ruling and the Opposition parties, 'Magar Syaahi padd gayi inke chehre pe' (Their faces are smeared with ink)... What kind of politics is this?", he added.
Amit Shah on Chidambaram's statement
On Congress leader P Chidambaram's statement, Amit Shah says, "Yesterday they (Congress) were asking us where the terrorists came from and who was responsible for it. Of course, it is our responsibility as we are in power. Yesterday, former Home Minister Chidambaram ji raised the question -what is the proof that the terrorists came from Pakistan? I want to ask him what he will get by saving Pakistan. When he says this, it means they are giving a clean chit to Pakistan..."
These three terrorists carried out Pahalgam attack
Amit Shah further said that the NIA had already arrested those who gave them shelter and those who fed them were detained. “When the terrorists' dead bodies reached Srinagar, they were identified as the three people who carried out the terror attack in Pahalgam. The FSL report of the cartridges from the terror attack was already ready. Yesterday, the rifles of the three terrorists were seized and matched with the FSL reports. Further tests were carried out in Chandigarh yesterday, after that it was confirmed that these three were those who carried out the terror attack..."
