The Ministry of Home Affairs has directed several states to conduct mock civil defense drills on May 7. Measures include operationalizing air raid sirens, training civilians on defense, blackout measures, camouflaging vital installations, and updating evacuation plans. This comes amid heightened tensions following a terror attack, with the government indicating preparedness for potential military action or retaliation from Pakistan. The move has sparked political debate about the opposition’s role in questioning the government’s response while supporting decisive action. Meanwhile, the widow of a terror attack victim in Pahalgam faced online hate after calling for peace and asking people not to target Muslims or Kashmiris. Himanshi Narwal, whose husband was killed days after their wedding, was initially hailed as the face of the tragedy but later vilified on social media for her message against communal hatred. The National Commission for Women took cognizance of the attacks against her. The debate explores the hypocrisy of those who turned against Narwal and the broader issues of online hate and impunity.
