I couldn’t find any credible reports or news articles confirming that Sunil Gavaskar made a statement about terrorists involved in a Pahalgam attack, specifically mentioning “For the next 78,000 years…” or any similar remark. The search results do not provide any information on such a statement by Gavaskar.
It’s possible that this quote is either misattributed to Gavaskar or originates from an unreliable source. Given the absence of verifiable information, I would advise caution in accepting this statement as accurate without further confirmation from reputable news outlets or official statements.
If you have any more details or context about where you encountered this quote, please share them, and I can assist further in verifying its authenticity.
