    Victim was resident of Achan in south Kashmir: Police

    The victim, a 40-year-old native of Achan in the region of south Kashmir, was at a local market at about 11:00 am when the incident occurred, according to the police. Following the killing of Rahul Bhat, a government employee, by terrorists in J&K's Budgam district last year, Kashmiri Pandits have been demonstrating against the government over the subject of rehabilitation.

    For months now, the Kashmiri Pandits have been pressing their demand to relocate to Jammu till the "situation in Kashmir improves." Reportedly, after the killing of Bhat at his office in the Budgam region of central Kashmir on May 12, 2022, hundreds of Kashmiri Pandits employed in the Kashmir Valley under the prime minister's package reportedly relocated to Jammu.
