Pampore attack: Rajnath Singh sends tough message to Pakistan
"We will make sure we never fire the first bullet. If Pakistan fires one bullet then we will not even think about keeping a count on the bullets that we are going to fire," Singh said.
Pakistan based terror outfit Lashar-e-Taiba has claimed responsibility of the militant attack on a CRPF vehicle near Pampore on Srinagar-Jammu highway on Saturday which left eight security personnel killed while injuring 22.
Two Lashkar militants were shot dead during retaliation fire while two more militants fled from the spot, officials said.
This is the deadliest attack since 2013. On June 24, 2013 militants ambushed an army convoy at Hyderpora Bypass in Srinagar, killing eight army soldiers.
