Srinagar:  Terrorists shot two migrants in Budgam, Jammu and Kashmir on Friday. Both are from Uttar Pradesh and were working on the Jal Jeevan project in Budgam. They have been admitted to the hospital where their condition is said to be stable.

Identification of injured people

Usman Malik (20) son of M Zulfan Malik and Sufia (25) son of M Inam Ilyas, both residents of Sahanpur in Uttar Pradesh have been shot. Usman has been injured in the right hand and Sufia in the right leg. Both worked as daily wage laborers in the Jal Shakti Department. Both the laborers have been shot but their condition is said to be stable. Both the injured have been admitted to JVC Hospital Bemina.

There have been many attacks on migrant workers. 

Let us tell you that this is not the first time that a case of firing on non-Kashmiris has come to light in Jammu and Kashmir. Even before this, non-Kashmiris have been targeted by terrorists many times. Last week, there was news of a person getting injured in firing in Batagund Tral. He was admitted to the hospital for treatment in an injured condition. Recently three such cases have happened. This means that with today's incident, a total of four such cases have come to light in which terrorists targeted non-Kashmiris.

After the decline in organized terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir, incidents of target killing are being reported continuously. Last year also, terrorists selectively killed non-Kashmiris in different areas. Many incidents of target killing were reported in Anantnag, Pulwama, and Poonch.

How many cases before this

In February this year, terrorists carried out a targeted killing in Srinagar, Jammu, and Kashmir and shot two people of the Sikh community in the Habba Kadal area. Amritsar residents Amrit Pal and Rohit were killed in this attack. Earlier, on the morning of February 2023, terrorists killed Kashmiri Pandit Sanjay Sharma in Pulwama. In May 2023, terrorists shot dead a man living in Anantnag.
