Condemning the terrorist attack on a CRPF convoy in Pulwama in Jammu and Kashmir, the Himachal Pradesh Assembly unanimously passed a condolence motion on Friday and sought a befitting reply to Pakistan.

Moving the motion, Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur said, "Himachal is with PM. Himachal has the same sentiments which is of the entire country. HP is with the country for giving befitting reply to Pakistan for Pulwama attack."
Thakur said there is no doubt that "our neighbouring country Pakistan is behind this terrorist attack. Pakistan denied its hand but everyone knows this act has been done by none other than Pakistan."
The chief minister said, "Now this situation cannot be tolerated at all. Whatever decision the leadership at the Centre takes, Himachal will fully support that."
