It’s been a somber week in India after a terrorist attack killed at least 25 tourists and one local horse attendant in Kashmir’s Pahalgam on Tuesday. The attack took place at the Baisaran meadow, where more than a thousand tourists, vendors and others were gathered. The Resistance Front, which is believed to be a wing of the Lashkar-e-Tayabba, has claimed responsibility for the attack. Soon after the attack, outrage and condolences poured in from across the country and the world. Political leaders across the spectrum have expressed anger and grief – and those from the opposition have also repeatedly brought up the question of accountability. This is an important question that those in power appear to be largely ignoring. The Wire's Jahnavi Sen discusses this question with former government interlocuter for J&K Radha Kumar and The Wire's founding editor Siddharth Varadarajan. They also talk about the measures announced by India and Pakistan after the attack, the threats made against Kashmiri students in various parts of India, the way forward from here and more.
