Several people were injured. The killers fled in the dark.Шаблон:Cn. The people who were living in the Sangrampora were Bhat’s and seven members of their family were killed in this attack.
Aftermath
Muslims in the area expressed deep outrage at this brutality and observed a partial strike to protest this heinous crime. The last rites of the victims were performed by residents of the village and were attended by Muslims and Sikhs from neighbouring areas as well.[4] Bharatiya Janata Party called for the dismissal of the government of Farooq Abdullah after this massacre.[5] After this massacre Panun Kashmir was dissolved and reorganised.[6] The motive of these killings was thought to be to discourage the Hindu's who had fled Kashmir from returning and getting rehabilitated by the Farooq Abdullah government.[7]
Following the massacre Government of Jammu and Kashmir provided 2-room flats to Kashmiri Hindus in a colony exclusively built for them in Sheikhpora in Budgam District. The state government also provided the survivors ration and Rs 100,000.[8]
