Every party should unite against terrorism: BJP's NV Subhash on Reasi terror attack

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], June 10 : Condemning the terror attack on pilgrims in Jammu and Kashmir's Reasi, Bharatiya Janata Party leader NV Subhash said that parties with different ideologies need to come together in the fight against terrorism.
At least nine people were killed and over 30 have been injured in the Reasi terror attack on Sunday.
Highlighting the timing of the attack which aligned with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's oath-taking ceremony, Subhash said, "At a time when Modi is taking oath as the Prime Minister for the third time, the terrorists specifically wanted to draw attention and target the Hindus."
Subash, the grandson of former PM PV Narsimha Rao, called for a thorough investigation and urged every political party to be united against such threats.
"We don't encourage any person involved. We condemn the attack and there should be a thorough inquiry into the terrorists who wanted to destabilize the foundation of the country. Every party should come together; when it comes to India, everyone should stand together," Subhash told ANI.
"Innocent people who dont have anything to do with any political parties, they are going to visit the temples, we really condemn the attack. The Jammu and Kashmir government should inquire about it and they should be compensated," he added.
The bus, coming from Shiv Khori shrine to Katra, carrying pilgrims was targeted by terrorists at around 6.10 pm on Sunday, when it reached the Pouni area of Reasi district, bordering Rajouri district.
Following the attack, the driver lost control and the bus plunged into the gorge killing at least nine people and leaving over 30 injured, the officials said.
According to officials, the rescue operations are complete and the injured have been taken to Naraina and Reasi District hospitals. LG Sinha also visited the injured at the hospital.
"The bus driver was attacked by the terrorists, after which the bus fell in the ditch. Nine people have lost their lives and around 37 people have been injured. The rescue operation started yesterday. The police, CRPF, and Army have launched the hunt operation," the LG Sinha said while speaking to reporters in Jammu.
Jammu and Kashmir (J-K) Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Monday announced an ex-gratia amounting to Rs 10 lakh each for the next of kin of the deceased and Rs 50,000 each for the injured in the Reasi terror attack.
