“This terror attack is an attempt to disturb the peaceful atmosphere in J&K. Therefore, the Govt of India must take revenge for the incident by launching a counter-terror operation in full scale. Besides, a detailed probe into the incident should be conducted to identify and punish the accused persons under the stringent laws,” he said.

Singh appreciated the role of security forces especially the Indian Army for maintaining peace and stability within and on the borders of Jammu and Kashmir.
He criticized the anti-peace elements who are bent upon to disturb peace in J&K. He said that the Govt of India should immediately summon the Pakistan High Commissioner and give a strong message to them.
