Meanwhile, a massive crowd gathered for the last rites of Rahul Bhat, a government employee belonging to the Kashmiri Pandit community, who was killed by two terrorists inside his office in central Kashmir's Budgam district, on Thursday. The incident took place in the afternoon when terrorists entered the tehsil office in Chadoora town and opened fire at Bhat. The 45-year-old, who was employed as a clerk, was rushed to Srinagar's Shri Maharaja Hari Singh Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries. Leaders and political parties of the Valley condemned the killing which, was claimed by a little-known outfit, the ‘Kashmir Tigers’.
