“This attack is very unfortunate. It is a cowardly act of terrorists instigated by Pakistan. India will give a befitting reply to these terrorists,” Chouhan said while speaking to ANI.

Speaking to reporters in Srinagar, the National Conference President Abdullah said, “I want to tell the leadership in Pakistan that if they want good relations with India, they need to put an end to this. Kashmir Pakistan nahi Banega.’ Let us live with dignity and succeed… If they couldn’t create a Pakistan for 75 years, how would it be possible now?… It is time to end terrorism, otherwise the results will be very severe… How will talks be held if they kill our innocent people?”
“This attack was very unfortunate… Immigrant poor labourers and a doctor lost their lives. What will the terrorists get from this? Do they think they will be able to create a Pakistan here… We are trying to put this to an end so we can move on from the misery,” he said.
