Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed deep sorrow after a devastating school shooting in British Columbia left at least ten people dead. The tragic incident reportedly took place in the small town of Tumbler Ridge, where what should have been a normal school day suddenly turned into chaos and fear.
According to initial information, the gunman opened fire inside a high school building, causing panic among students and teachers. Emergency services rushed to the scene quickly, but the scale of damage had already shaken the entire community. Several people were injured apart from those who lost their lives, making it one of the most shocking incidents in recent Canadian memory.
In a message shared publicly, PM Modi said he was deeply shocked by the horrendous act of violence and extended heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims. He also expressed hope that those injured would recover soon. He stated that India stands firmly in solidarity with the people of Canada during this painful time.
Canada is generally known for being peaceful, so such incidents create deep emotional impact not just locally but internationally as well. Leaders from various countries have also shared their sympathy, highlighting how senseless violence affects humanity beyond borders.
Back in India, many citizens reacted with sadness and disbelief. Social media was filled with messages offering prayers and support. Discussions also emerged around school safety, mental health awareness and the urgent need for stronger global conversations about preventing such tragedies.
Investigations into the motive and background of the shooter are still ongoing. Authorities are working to piece together what led to the attack. For now, the focus remains on supporting grieving families and helping the injured heal.
This tragedy once again reminds the world how fragile peace can be. In just a few minutes, lives were changed forever, leaving behind grief that words can barely describe.
