Tensions Escalate in India Following Deadly Kashmir Attack

Widespread backlash against Muslims and rising anti-Pakistan sentiment has emerged in India after a militant attack claims numerous lives.


A deadly attack in Kashmir has incited public outrage in India, leading to violence against Muslims, destruction of homes, and increased hostility towards Pakistan as Prime Minister Modi vows to retaliate.



Amid rising tensions in India following a tragic attack in Kashmir that resulted in the deaths of 26 individuals, predominantly Hindu tourists, public anger has surged. The militant attack, which occurred last week, has prompted a series of controversial government actions, including the detention of thousands of Muslims and the demolition of their homes in areas deemed unlawful.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has signaled a potential military response toward Pakistan, asserting that those responsible for the attack will be hunted down. Pakistan has been accused of supporting the militants, a claim that the Pakistani government refutes. In the wake of the attack, reports indicate that violence against Muslims has escalated. Incidents of hate crimes were particularly noted in the states of Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka.

With security forces operating aggressively in Kashmir, hundreds of arrests have made headlines, alongside reports of demolishing homes linked to individuals labeled as terrorists. Analysts suggest that this backlash extends beyond Kashmir, fueling anti-Muslim sentiment nationwide. Such sentiments have been historically leveraged by Modi’s party to consolidate support among India’s Hindu majority, raising concerns about the deeper implications for social cohesion and religious harmony in the region.

In a related context, tensions in South Asia have also seen a rise in expulsions; over 80,000 Afghan migrants have been forced to leave Pakistan since late March, which further complicates the already intricate socio-political landscape. This environment of fear and division continues to challenge the foundations of unity in both India and Pakistan.
