Devotees at Kheer Bhawani mela befitting reply to perpetrators of Pahalgam attack: Farooq Abdullah
TULMULLA (J-K): (Jun 3) National Conference (NC) president Farooq Abdullah on Tuesday hoped that Kashmiri Pandits would return to the Valley as their presence at the Mela Kheer Bhawani in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack was "a befitting reply" to its perpetrators.
"This (presence of devotees at the mela) is a huge thing. This is Mata's (temple deity) doing. She has called them here, to their homes," Abdullah told reporters here after visiting the temple shrine during the annual mela here in Ganderbal district.
Abdullah urged people to shed any fear over the terror attack and the four-day military conflict that followed and visit Jammu and Kashmir in huge numbers.
