Tragedy Strikes Poonch: Gurdwara Attack Sparks Outrage

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann condemns cross-border shelling by Pakistan that hit a sacred gurdwara in Poonch, resulting in the death of four Sikhs among others. The artillery assault, initiated after India targeted terror sites in response to an earlier attack, led to numerous casualties and injuries.

In a tragic escalation of cross-border tensions, an assault by the Pakistan Army targeted forward villages along the Line of Control, culminating in significant loss of life in the Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir.

The attack, which claimed the lives of at least twelve individuals, including four children, left 57 others wounded and occurred after India launched a retaliatory missile strike on terror targets across the border.

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann condemned the grave assault, particularly highlighting the bombing of a gurdwara where four Sikhs were killed, lamenting the loss of innocent lives and denouncing the barbaric actions targeting civilians.
