Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said on Wednesday that those responsible for the Pahalgam terror attack must pay the price for what they have done and Prime Minister Narendra Modi must act strongly and not dilly-dally on the action.

Addressing the media at the AICC headquarters here, the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha said those behind the Pahalgam attack must pay the price and be made to realise they cannot do this to India.

He said the government has opposition's 100 per cent support and Modi has to take action.

"The prime minister has to take action. Action has to be clear and strong. The prime minister must not dilly-dally and needs to act. He can act in whatever timeframe he thinks necessary," Gandhi said.

The Congress MP said he met the family of a victim of the Pahalgam attack in Kanpur and they wanted that they should be given a martyr status.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
