February 14, 2023 marks four years of the 2019 pulwama attack when 40 central reserve police force personnel were martyred in a suicide bombing attack.
A 22-year-old suicide bomber Adil Ahmad Dar rammed an explosive-laden vehicle into a bus carrying 40 CRPF personnel on February 14, 2019, in the Pulwama district.
The attack was carried out at Lethapora in the Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir.
The incident killed 40 Indian soldiers along with the perpetrator-Adil Ahmad Dar-who was a local Kashmiri youth.
On February 26 last year, in response to the Pulwama attack, India struck a Jaish terrorist training camp in Pakistan's Balakot area, code-named “Operation Bandar”.
A total of 19 accused were named in the chargesheet filed by the NIA in August 2020.
