Pick up the parts
Among the most affected by the fighting, there were residents on each side of the border, many of whom fled their houses when the fights began on Wednesday, two weeks after a fatal attack in the Pahalgam of the Indian cashmere which, according to India, was supported by Islamabad.
Pakistan denied the accusation.
In the Indian border town of Amritsar, which houses the Golden Temple revered by the Sikhs, people returned to the streets on Sunday morning after a mermaid has sounded to report a return to normal activities after the tension of the last days.
“Since the terrorists attacked people in Pahalgam, we have closed our shops very early and there was an uncertainty. I am happy that at least there is no bloodshed on both sides,” said Satvir Singh Alhuwalia, 48, a merchant in the city.
In some border areas, however, people were still invited not to go home. In the Indian city of Baramulla cashmere, the authorities warned the residents to stay away due to the threat posed by unploded ammunition.
“People here welcome us well, but just as a bird feels in peace in its own nest, we also feel comfortable in our own houses, even if they have been damaged,” said Azam Charthry, 55, who fled his house in the Pakistani city of Khuiratta and was now said to wait until Monday before returning.
In the URI of Indian cashmere, a key power plant that has been damaged in a Pakistani drone attack is still in repair.
“The project has undergone minor damage … We stopped the generation because the transmission line was damaged,” said an NHPC official managed by the state, the largest hydroelectric company in India, who did not want to be identified.
