Hamza Rao 02:47 PM | 3 Oct, 2016

Hours after the terror attacks in Baramulla in Indian occupied Kashmir, Indian Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Monday said security forces were giving a ‘befitting reply’ to such attempts by "Pakistan-based" terrorist groups.

“Our security forces are giving a befitting reply,” he told reporters here when asked about the attacks on security forces by militants in the state.

Singh’s comments came hours after a BSF and adjoining army camps in Baramulla were attacked by heavily armed militants Sunday night.

The Home Minister is on a two-day visit to Leh and Kargil to interact with a cross-section of people and take their suggestions on resolution of Kashmir issue, Indian express reported.

Earlier today, Indian Border Security Force (BSF) once again resorted to unprovoked shelling across the Line of Control at Iftikhar Abad sector in Azad Kashmir.

According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), Pakistan Army personnel befittingly responded the Indian aggression and silenced the guns across the border. The ceasefire violation took place between 12:00am to 4:00am.

Indian Defence expert Qamar Agha on Monday accused Pakistan of planting the attack and went on to threaten Pakistan for another attack after so-called ‘surgical strikes’ that India claimed it carried out to avenge for the Uri attack.

“Indian forced are prepared to battle such attacks and Pakistan have to pay the price for the Baramulla attack,” Agha said.

“India would revenge for the attack,” He added.

Another Indian Defence expert, SR Sinho accused ISI and Pakistani army for plotting the attack and demanded an investigation of the attack.

“The attack was a failure of ISI and Pakistani army, India will soon give a befitting response.”
