"May the departed souls rest in peace, and may those who were injured recover soon. The nation stands with the victims and their families in this hour of indescribable grief," said the statement issued by the Supreme Court. "The attack on tourists, who were merely enjoying the natural beauty of the Crown Jewel of India. Kashmir is undoubtedly an affront to the values of humanity and the sanctity of life and this Court strongly condemns the same," it added. Judges, lawyers, members of the staff and all other persons present in the court and in the Registry observed a two-minute silence expressing solidarity with the victims as well as their bereaved families. Meanwhile, in the aftermath of the tragic terror attack that led to the death of many innocent lives on Tuesday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday reviewed the security situation at the site of the terror attack in Pahalgam's Baisaran meadow. The Union Minister first took an aerial stock of the region as he arrived at the site by helicopter, descending onto the meadow now bearing the scars of violence, earlier in the day. Amit Shah walked around the area amid tight security and was briefed by top officials on the current situation and ongoing operations in the area. (ANI)
