Amritsar, April 24 -- The Akal Takht, Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) and Sikh hardliners on Wednesday condemned the Pahalgam terror attack.

Expressing grief over the incident and extending condolences to the families of those killed, Takht acting jathedar Giani Kuldeep Singh Gargaj said the attack reminded him of the March 2000 massacre in Chittisinghpura, Kashmir, in which 35 Sikhs were killed. He called for justice to affected families in both incidents.

SGPC president Harjinder Singh Dhami said this inhuman and brutal act has deeply hurt the values of society. He said spiritual and humanitarian teachings do not promote such violence, but rather guide everyone towards unity, brotherhood, and harmony.
