A family from Karnataka had a miraculous escape during the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam’s Baisaran Valley, where 25 tourists were killed. Pradeep Hegde, his wife Shubha, and their son Siddhant were visiting the valley when gunmen opened fire. Mistaking the first shots for crackers, they soon realized the danger. A bullet grazed Shubha’s hair as she reached for their bag. The family fled amid chaos, aided by a brave horseman who helped them escape. Shubha kept calm, not revealing the close call to her son. Their survival was a mix of courage, quick decisions, and sheer luck. (PC: NDTV)
