Prime Minister Narendra Modi Tuesday described the terror attack on a Peshawar school as a "senseless act of unspeakable brutality".
"Strongly condemn the cowardly terrorist attack at a school in Peshawar," Modi tweeted.
"It is a senseless act of unspeakable brutality that has claimed lives of the most innocent of human beings - young children in their school. My heart goes out to everyone who lost their loved ones today. We share their pain & offer our deepest condolences," the tweet added.
