Relatives of Manish Ranjan killed in Kashmir terror attack demand justice, as family mourns tragic loss.
Relatives of Manish Ranjan, who was among the 26 people killed in a terror attack in Pahalgam in Kashmir, demanded immediate action against those found responsible for the brutal incident. Employed with the Intelligence Bureau in Hyderabad, Manish was on a vacation with his family members.
His ancestral village Aruhi is located under Kargahar police station in Rohtas district of Bihar. He is survived by his wife and two children.
Ranjan’s father, Manglesh Kumar Mishra, retired as a senior teacher from the Intermediate College in Jhalda, West Bengal. He lives there with his family. Manish is the eldest of three brothers.
Speaking to The Hindu over phone, Manish’s uncle, Alok Kumar Priyadarshi, said, “Manish had gone to Kashmir along with his family. He had also asked me to come with him but my health did not allow, so I did not go. He was born in Sasaram and did initial schooling there as well. However when he was very young, Mangleshji took his entire family to Purulia in West Bengal.”
Mr. Priyadarshi said he got the information about his nephew’s death from the television when I was scanning the news channel. “Then I called my bhai sahab (Manglesh). First, he did not pick up the phone, but later I spoke to him. He was not in a good condition to speak and was very nervous.
Mr. Priyadarshi added, “Bhai Sahab said he had got the news in the evening itself but was hiding it so that we should not panic. We all started crying.”
Manish’s late grandfather Paras Nath Mishra lived in Sasaram and retired as the headmaster of a government school. Manish used to visit Sasaram to meet his uncle and aunty.
