Days after the horrific terror attack in Pahalgam, a survivor from Navi Mumbai - Subodh Patil, recounted the chilling moments that unfolded during the tragedy. He said "... We heard some noise from behind us, but could not recognise it. Then we heard continuous sounds and saw people running. We got scared, so we also started running. We saw a few people sitting together ahead of us, so we also sat down there. A terrorist came and said, "Who all are Hindus among you? Stand up!' Then he started firing... I got shot and fell unconscious. I woke up after many hours and found myself surrounded by dead bodies. The local who brought me up there (Baisaran meadow) recognised me. He gave me water and brought me to the exit on his back. From there, he took me downhill on a bike. The army personnel bandaged me and took me to the hospital. From there, I was taken to the army hospital in a helicopter. I was admitted there for seven days."
