Azad condemns attack on CRPF convoy

Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad today condemned the attack on the CRPF convoy in Pampore, describing it as a "dastardly" act.
"It is painful to learn about the death of our soldiers who are fighting a proxy war and succeeded in creating an atmosphere in the state, as a result of which tourists from across the world are visiting Kashmir, thereby contributing to the economy of the state.
"The terrorist attack at this juncture on our brave security forces should be condemned by one and all," the Leader of the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha said.

Azad also extended his heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families.
The state authorities and other security agencies should soon nab the culprits involved in such a "dastardly act", he added.
