'Maa, he's no more, terrorists shot him'

The Morning Standard

April 24, 2025

AN eerie silence has befallen Ishani village in Balasore district's Saragaon panchayat. There has been a beeline of political leaders, government officials and people from nearby localities since news broke on Tuesday that Prasant Satpathy died in the Pahalgam terror attack. At the home of the Satpathys, intermittent wailing rends the air.

Prasant's mother Padmabati received the first call from her daughter-in-law Priyadarshini about the attack. "Words failed her. I heard her sob and all she could manage was: Maa, he is no more, terrorists shot him," Padmabati stutters. The wailing has not stopped since then.
