J.C. Chandra Mouli's death in Pahalgam attack shatters Visakhapatnam. Cherished for community service, his impact resonates.

Visakhapatnam Mourns Pahalgam Loss of J.C Mouli

Visakhapatnam grieves J.C. Chandra Mouli's death in the Pahalgam attack. Known for community dedication, his loss echoes strongly.

Retired bank employee J.C. Chandra Mouli's tragic death in the Pahalgam attack deeply impacts his Visakhapatnam community.

The death of JC Chandra Mouli, a retired bank employee from Visakhapatnam, in the recent Pahalgam terror attack came as a rude shock to his neighbours, who remembered him as a friendly and sociable person.
Mouli, who lived in the Pandurangapuram area of the port city, spent his retirement in an apartment and actively supported the bank employees&rsquo; association, said Ravi Kumar, a neighbour.
"This is highly shocking news. We didn&rsquo;t believe it at first. It distressed me deeply&mdash;a tragic development," Kumar told a vernacular news channel, adding that he was forced to accept the news after seeing Mouli&rsquo;s photograph on a trusted news platform.
According to Kumar, Mouli regularly spent about two hours a day at the SBI head office in Vizag, attending to matters related to the employees&rsquo; association.
"During apartment meetings, he took a keen interest in resolving issues. He was elected vice-president of our apartment association, and I serve as the secretary," he said.
Kumar also fondly recalled crossing paths with Mouli during morning and evening walks, often engaging in friendly conversations.
He remembered that he was out of town when Mouli left for Kashmir and recalled Mouli mentioning that he had just sent his daughter back to the US.
Though neighbours were expecting Mouli to return today or tomorrow, Kumar said the tragic news has left them shattered.
Mouli, originally from Srikakulam, had settled in Visakhapatnam due to his banking career. Both his daughters are based in the US.
His body is expected to arrive in Visakhapatnam around 10 pm on an Air India flight via Mumbai and Hyderabad.
Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu is expected to personally receive the body and pay his respects.
Meanwhile, the second Telugu victim of the attack has been identified as S Madhusudan, a software engineer from Bengaluru.
Madhusudan, who was settled in Bengaluru, had gone on a holiday to Jammu and Kashmir with his wife and two children. He was originally from Kavali in the Nellore district.
His body is scheduled to arrive in Chennai around 10 pm and will then be transported to Nellore by ambulance.

The Pahalgam terror attack has led to a 90% drop in Kashmir tourism due to safety fears, impacting travel agents and economic stability.

Mass Cancellations in Kashmir Post-Attack

Tourism in Kashmir suffers a severe blow as 90% of bookings get canceled following a tragic terror attack in Pahalgam, raising safety concerns.

Tourism plummets in Kashmir post-Pahalgam attack, causing vast cancellations and financial strain.

In the aftermath of a terror attack in Pahalgam, several travel agencies in Delhi said on Wednesday that nearly 90 per cent bookings for Jammu and Kashmir have been cancelled by tourists over safety concerns.
Around 25 people have asked them to cancel their bookings for the Union Territory, said Gaurav Rathi, owner of Swan Travellers, a company located in Shankar Market, Outer Circle, Connaught Place.
He added that most of the tourists had planned to visit Kashmir next month and are now requesting cancellations.
The attack took place around 3 pm on Tuesday, when terrorists descended from the mountains in Pahalgam's Baisaran valley and opened fire on tourists. The area, often referred to as "mini Switzerland" for its lush green meadows, is a popular tourist destination.
At least 26 people, mostly tourists, were killed in the ghastly attack.
Travel agencies in Delhi reported that nearly 90 per cent bookings for Kashmir have been cancelled, while some tourists are negotiating to shift their plans to alternative destinations.
"We had a few bookings from families. From bus and flight tickets to hotels -- everything was booked in advance. But the moment the news of the terror attack broke, we started receiving calls for cancellations," Dev, the owner of Kusha Travels, told PTI.
Popular tourist spots like Gulmarg, Hajan Valley and the Tulip Gardens were among the most-booked destinations.
"We had more than 20 bookings for Kashmir for this month and next month, but almost all of those have been cancelled indefinitely," said Kartik Verma, a travel agent from Good Guide Tours and Travels.
"People are asking for refunds. They are saying they cannot risk taking their loved ones to a place where there is a chance that they might not return," he added.
Since some bookings, especially for flights and hotels, are non-refundable, it is creating a real mess for the tour agencies, Verma said, adding that during this time of the year, Kashmir is among the most sought-after destinations for families.
Another travel agency, Swastik Travels, said Kashmir is not just the first-choice destination for Delhiites, but also very popular among the tourists visiting Delhi, many of whom plan onward trips to the valley.
"It is not just Delhi residents cancelling their plans -- tourists already in the capital are also calling off their Kashmir trips, even though hotel tariffs are at a peak this summer. People are cancelling regardless of the cost," said the owner of Swastik Travels.
"Not just Kashmir, people are now scared to even visit Jammu. We had bookings for seven families headed to Katra for the Vaishno Devi shrine and all of those have been cancelled after the horrific attack," he added.
Another travel agency, AJ Tours and Travels, said they have been instructed to stop taking further bookings for Jammu and Kashmir.
"We have been directed by the Travel Association of Srinagar to halt all transportation and bookings. So we are not accepting any new bookings for Jammu and Kashmir until further notice," the agency said.
The Pahalgam attack is the deadliest in the valley since the 2019 Pulwama strike.
Among the dead were two foreigners and two local residents, according to a senior official who declined to share more details.

A timely alert from hotel staff helped a Buldhana family escape a deadly terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, claiming 26 lives.

Maharashtra Family Escapes Pahalgam Attack

A family's quick decision based on hotel staff's advice helped them escape a terror attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir that left 26 dead.

A Buldhana family narrowly escaped a Pahalgam terrorist attack due to quick hotel staff advice to stay indoors.

A five-member family from Buldhana district in Maharashtra, who was vacationing in Kashmir's Pahalgam, was about to step out for local sightseeing, unaware of the terror attack, but was stopped by the owner and staff of their hotel from going out in view of the tense situation.
Terrorists struck at Baisaran, a prime tourist location in Pahalgam in south Kashmir on Tuesday afternoon, killing at least 26 people, mostly tourists, and injuring several others.
Speaking to a news channel, Buldhana resident Nilesh Jain said he and his four family members were staying at a hotel in Pahalgam on Tuesday after completing a three-days tour of Sonmarg, Gulmarg and Srinagar.
"On Tuesday afternoon, as we were preparing to step out of the hotel for sightseeing, its owner and other staff stopped us from going out, saying gun firing was going on outside. After being informed, we decided not to go out," he said.
He said that in view of the terror attack in Pahalgam, they do not wish to continue with their tour, and requested the government to arrange for their return home.
Nilesh Jain's brother Arun Jain, who is a journalist in Buldhana, said his two sons were accompanying his brother, the latter's wife and their daughter on the Jammu and Kashmir tour.
After visiting certain places, all of them were in Pahalgam on April 21 and 22, he added.
