Pahalgam Attack: UK backs India’s right to hunt down terrorists; MP calls it ‘a systematic attack on Hindus and Christians’

British MP Bob Blackman has condemned the April 22 terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, calling it a coordinated Islamist assault on Hindu and Christian tourists. Speaking in Parliament and at India House in London, Blackman urged full UK support for Indias counter-terrorism efforts. The attack killed 26 people and prompted strong Indian diplomatic responses against Pakistan. The UK government acknowledged Indias right to act while urging de-escalation and law-enforcement-led justice. Tensions have spilled onto UK streets amid community unrest and political divisions.
