Rana, who along with BJP MLAs Ms Shagun Parihar, Arvind Gupta and Surinder Kumar Bhagat visited the residence of Martyr Shashi Bhushan Abrol, assassinated along with six others during the barbaric and inhuman terror attack in Gagangir area of Ganderbal, to offer condolences personally, said the sacrifice of the Martyr and the other workers will be remembered with gratitude, as they laid down their lives while putting in their best in reconstruction and development of Jammu and Kashmir that has witnessed a long spell of turmoil at the hands of enemies of humanity and peace.
“Their sacrifices will not go waste and the lunatic and barbaric killers as also their perpetrators will have to pay the price of their inhuman act”, he said while interacting with mourners.
Devender Rana said the political parties across the spectrum, civil society in general and the people of Jammu and Kashmir in particular should stand in unison against such heinous and radicalized crimes that are leaving humanity bleeding.
While talking to the media persons outside the Martyrs residence, Rana exuded confidence that the police and the security forces will not allow terror to again germinate on sustain on the sacred soil of Jammu and Kashmir after having been wiped out with iron fists. The residual terrorists are poised to get annihilated, he said, describing the Gagangir act as a sign of frustration of terrorists on the face of people’s preference for peace and normalcy.
Rana said terrorism is on its last leg as the normalcy and peace is fast returning in J&K because of Zero tolerance to terrorism and their ecosystem by the Union Government and the valour of the security forces.
