The Baloch Welfare Association in India has condemned the Pahalgam Terror Attack in a statement. Expressing condolences towards the victims, the statement urged the Indian Government and the international community to take decisive steps to curb cross border terrorism.
The organisation focuses on the social, economic and cultural welfare of the Baloch Community in India. Balochistan is a province of Pakistan that has been oppressed and exploited by the Pakistani Establishment ever since independence.
Their statement is reproduced below in full:
“We, the Baloch Welfare Association in India, strongly condemn the brutal and cowardly terrorist attack that took place in Pahalgam, Kashmir. This inhumane act has taken the lives of innocent civilians and left many injured, striking at the heart of peace and humanity.
Our deepest condolences go out to the families of the victims who lost their lives in this horrific tragedy. We share in their grief and stand in solidarity with them during this painful time. Every innocent life lost is a loss to our entire nation.
We also pray for the speedy and full recovery of all those who were injured. The pain and suffering caused by such senseless violence must never be accepted as normal — we must continue to speak out against it, and take a united stand for peace.
We urge the Indian government and the international community to take strong action to stop cross-border terrorism once and for all. These repeated attacks against innocent civilians must be met with firm resolve. The support and safe havens for terrorists across the border must be dismantled to secure lasting peace.
As Indians, we deeply love our country and our people. No act of terror can weaken our spirit or divide our unity. The Baloch community in India stands firmly with the people of Pahalgam and all those affected by this attack.
Together, we must rise above fear, defeat hatred, and build a future rooted in peace, dignity, and justice for all.”
