On a day that was supposed to be steeped in peace and natural beauty, terror struck the heart of Pahalgam.

The breathtaking valleys, the murmuring Lidder River, the green pastures – all became silent witnesses to yet another cruel reminder of the darkness that still lurks within our world. Innocent lives were lost. Dreams were shattered. Families were torn apart. And once again, we were reminded that terrorism is not a distant menace. It is a reality that haunts the streets, the marketplaces, the sacred places we hold dear.

It is easy to move on. To turn the page. To change the channel.
But it is essential not to forget.

We at Kautilya Books believe that awareness is the first step towards resistance. Understanding is the first step towards healing. Knowledge is the first weapon against terror.

In the wake of the Pahalgam tragedy, we are showcasing a collection of powerful books that shine a piercing light on the grim world of terrorism — its origins, its manipulations, its human cost. These books are not just about terrorists; they are about the courage of survivors, the strength of truth, and the undying spirit of humanity that refuses to be extinguished.

Each page is a tribute —
To those we have lost.
To those who continue to fight.
To the idea that terror must never have the last word.

House Of Terror : An Insider's True Story

The Tragic Illusion of an Islamic State

Through these stories, we seek not just to document the horrors, but to amplify the resilience, the questions, and the hope that must guide us forward.

This is not just about selling books.
It’s about building a bridge between pain and purpose.
It’s about ensuring that the sacrifices made are not swallowed by silence.

This is our small attempt to say:
We will not forget.
We will not look away.
We will understand, we will remember — and we will resist.

In memory of those lost at Pahalgam — and countless others across the world.
