What netizens are saying

 

Married just a few days ago, 26-year-old Narwal was holidaying with his wife in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam when terrorists shot him dead. Hailing from Bhusli village in Karnal district, Narwal's family was presently living in Karnal city.

Narwal had joined the Navy just two years ago and was posted in Kochi. His death has sent shockwaves through his family, community, and the defence establishment. Neighbours and locals have expressed their condolences, with many describing Narwal as a young officer with a bright future.

Speaking about the couple, Narwal's neighbour said, "They were planning a honeymoon in Switzerland, but decided to go to Kashmir instead taking into account the leave he had...We can't imagine what his family is going through."

"....We saw videos where a girl was crying and pleading with the terrorists to kill her too but they told her they were sparing her so that she can tell (PM Narendra) Modi what happened," she said without elaborating.
