Kashmir Tragedy: A Martyr's Recognition and Calls for Peace

Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha visited the family of Zakir Hussain, a victim of Pakistani shelling. Hussain's family seeks his martyr status and better compensation. The shelling followed Indian military strikes in response to a terror attack. An understanding to halt military actions has since calmed the region.

Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, Manoj Sinha, extended his condolences to the family of Zakir Hussain, who tragically lost his life due to Pakistani shelling.

Hussain's family is pushing for his official recognition as a martyr and a call for improved compensation. The attack was a retaliatory move by Pakistani forces following Indian military strikes. These military tensions were a response to a terrorist attack in Pahalgam.

Despite recent cross-border hostilities, an agreement between India and Pakistan has brought a tense peace to the area, ending a fortnight of violent exchanges between the two nations.
