Pakistan trying to destabilise India : Rajnath Singh
New Delhi, June 27 (IBNS) In the wake of the Pampore terror attack, Union Home Minister Rajanth Singh on Sunday said the neighbouring country was making attempts to destabilise India.
“An attempt is being made by these terrorists and our neighbouring country to destabilise India. I call upon Indian youth to stand up to face such forces and we should greet and welcome the bravery of our security people and the way they are working with such valour and courage,” he said.
Altogether eight CRPF personnel were killed and 22 injured in the attack on their bus by two LeT terrorists on the Srinagar-Jammu national highway in Pulwama district on Saturday. The two Lashkar militants were shot dead.
Rajnath Singh said a two-member committee would be send to Pampore to look into any lapses.
He also said security forces have “standing orders” not to fire the first bullet, but “not count bullets while retaliating”.
