Pahalgam, a popular tourist destination in Kashmir, witnessed a sudden downturn in tourism following a terrorist attack at Baisaran meadow. The once vibrant town now stands desolate, with businesses closed and visitors hastily leaving. In the midst of chaos, the local community has extended a helping hand to the shocked tourists, providing free meals and comfort in restaurants. Despite the tragic event, a few tourists have chosen to stay back, expressing solidarity with the Kashmiri people and their resilience in ensuring safety. The incident has cast a shadow over the usually serene town of Pahalgam, but the spirit of unity and support among the locals and remaining tourists is a beacon of hope in these trying times.
