We will hunt down every terrorist involved in Pahalgam attack: Amit Shah

Mangalore Today News Network

New Delhi, May 2, 2025: Insisting that by striking terror one should not think they have won the battle, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday said India will "hunt down" each and everyone involved in the Pahalgam terror attack and be made answerable for it.

At a function where he unveiled a statue of patriarch of Assam’s Bodo community Upendra Nath Brahma and name a road after him, Shah said the Modi government has been pursuing a zero-tolerance policy against terrorists and if someone thinks they will escape by carrying out such a cowardly attack, they are wrong.

"Whoever has carried out the dastardly attack in Pahalgam, we will not spare anyone. We will hunt down each and every perpetrator...This is Narendra Modi’s government," he said.

Emphasising that the government’s fight against terrorism will continue till the menace is completely wiped out, Shah said, "do not think that you have won by killing 26 people. Everyone of you will be made answerable."

He said the entire country is with the families of victims, sharing their grief and pain. He said under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, the government has been giving "strong response" to terrorists operating in the north-east, naxal-infested localities and in Kashmir.

"If someone thinks that conducting a terror attack is a victory, be clear, this is Narendra Modi government and no one will be spared. We will uproot terrorism from every inch of the country," he said.

In India’s fight against terrorism, he said it is not just 140 crore Indians but the entire world is with the country and standing with one voice.

"We will not stop till terrorism is finished," he added.
