He said all four families were safely guided away from the site by Nazakat Ali, who is well known to the Chirmiri residents.“After reaching Pahalgam, we contacted Nazakat Ali, a local who is familiar with us. We all moved out, accompanying him to visit the tourist spots in and around Pahalgam. When the random firing created a shocking, chaotic situation, Ali acted with prompt sagacity and took us all to safety from the horrifying scene,” said Happy Wadhawan.Though the families escaped unharmed, anxiety remains among relatives back in Chhattisgarh who are worried for their loved ones still in Kashmir.In a tragic turn of events, Dinesh Miraniya, a businessman from Raipur’s Samta Colony, succumbed to critical bullet injuries sustained during the firing.
