New Delhi: The whole nation is in agony over the Kashmir's Pulwama terror attack and people from every nook and corner of the country are condemning the "barbaric" and "cowardly" attack of terrorism, killing 45 CRPF soldiers.

Putting across her solidarity and thoughts, Bollywood actress Janhvi Kapoor also came forward to express her feelings and criticize an article published in a Pakistan daily calling Pulwama attacker "Freedom Fighter", the headline goes, "Freedom fighter launches attack,44 of occupying force killed in IOK."

Actress Janhvi Kapoor took to her Instagram and posted the picture of the daily and wrote:

The caption says, “The reasons to be angered and hurt are plenty. The one that upsets me the most is that our men didn’t even get the chance to fight for themselves. The second photo is of a propagandist article that is celebrating this terrorist attack as a fight for freedom. It’s tragic and irresponsible that the truths of such a condemnable act are being distorted by the media to suit their political agendas. These men have been robbed of not just their lives but also the respect that they deserve as protectors of a nation. Let’s pray for the souls of our brave men and for the strength of their families. #jaihind”

These men have been robbed of not just their lives but also the respect that they deserve as protectors of a nation. Let’s pray for the souls of our brave men and for the strength of their families. #jaihind 🇮🇳
