Mainstream political parties in Jammu and Kashmir condemned the suspected Rajouri terror attack on some people from the minority community at Dangri village.

While the BJP pledged to wipe out terrorism from the Union Territory, the Congress alleged the administration has failed on the security front.

“Their tall claims of normalcy is shaken by the incident. They have failed to protect the minority community first in Kashmir and now in Jammu,” a Congress spokesperson said, criticising the administration.

J&K BJP president Ravinder Raina condemned the incident and called it an act of “utter cowardice” by Pakistani terrorists and pledged to wipe out them and their supporters from the UT. He said Pakistan and terrorists sponsored by it are trying to show their existence by carrying out these ghastly acts. “Pakistan’s nefarious designs have failed till now and it will be taught a lesson for all its misdeeds,” he said.

The Democratic Azad party also condemned the attack. “I strongly condemn brutal terror attack at Dhangri, Rajouri in which three civilians have been killed,” chief of newly formed DAP Ghulam Nabi Azad said. He said this is an act of cowardice. “My deepest condolences to the families and relatives of the victims, and I wish a speedy recovery to the injured,” he said.
