The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has filed a chargesheet in connection with the Pahalgam terror attack that resulted in the deaths of 26 individuals, predominantly tourists, on April 22. The document details a conspiracy involving the Pakistan-based terrorist organizations Lashkar-e-Taiba and its affiliate, The Resistance Front, identifying Pakistani handler Sajid Jatt as a key figure. The NIA’s ongoing investigations revealed the involvement of three Pakistani nationals who were later killed by Indian armed forces during an operation named Operation Mahadev. In response to the attack, the Indian military conducted precision strikes on May 7 against terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, targeting multiple sites linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed. This comprehensive probe underscores the persistent threat posed by cross-border terrorism and reaffirms India’s robust counter-terrorism strategies aimed at safeguarding national security.
