The mortal remains of the father and son duo from Bhavnagar were brought back to their hometown late Wednesday night.
The deceased, Yatish Parmar and his son Smit Parmar, were part of a 20-member group from Bhavnagar who had travelled to Kashmir to attend a religious discourse by Morari Bapu.
The group had gone for sightseeing in Pahalgam when the attack occurred on April 22.
Smit’s mother, Kajal Parmar, broke down in heart-wrenching grief upon seeing the bodies of her husband and son.
Their remains were first flown from Kashmir to Mumbai, then to Ahmedabad, and finally brought to Bhavnagar late at night.
Chief Minister Patel, Union Minister of State Nimuben Bambhaniya, Bhavnagar MLA Jitubhai Vaghani, Mayor Bharatbhai Barad, Municipal Chairman Rajubhai Rabadiya, District Collector Dr Manish Bansal, and several local corporators and officials were present during the last rites of the man-son duo.
The terror attack in Pahalgam left one more Bhavnagar resident injured - Vinubhai Dabhi - who sustained a bullet wound in his right arm and is currently undergoing treatment in Kashmir.
The bullet reportedly grazed through his arm without causing major structural damage.
