Bihar Migrant Laborer Fatally Shot by Terrorists in Anantnag, J&K

In a tragic incident on Wednesday, a migrant labourer hailing from Bihar fell victim to terrorist violence in Bijbehara, Anantnag district of Jammu and Kashmir. Raju Shah, the individual targeted in this heinous act, was fatally shot, marking the second such targeted attack in the region within 10 days.

The assailants, identified as terrorists, unleashed gunfire on Raju Shah in Jablipora Bijbehera, Anantnag, critically injuring him. Despite being promptly rushed to the hospital for urgent medical attention, Shah tragically succumbed to his injuries.

Kashmir Zone Police confirmed the grim development, stating, “The injured person, who was shot at by terrorists, succumbed to his injuries at the hospital.”

Following the attack, the area has been sealed off, and security forces have launched a comprehensive search operation to track down the perpetrators.

This latest incident comes on the heels of another assault just a week prior when terrorists targeted a resident of Dehradun in south Kashmir’s Herpora. Fortunately, Dilranjeet Singh, the victim of the earlier attack, managed to survive. It’s a stark reminder of the persistent threat posed by terrorism in the region.

Prior to these events, in February, two workers from Punjab were tragically killed in Srinagar. Subsequent investigations revealed a link to Pakistan following the arrest of a terrorist.

The series of attacks underscore the ongoing challenges and dangers faced by civilians and migrant workers in the volatile region, highlighting the urgent need for enhanced security measures and efforts to combat terrorism effectively.
