JAMMU, Feb. 12 -- Senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister, Kavinder Gupta has strongly condemned the cowardly act of terrorism in which two brave Army personnel, including a Captain, lost their lives in an IED blast triggered by suspected terrorists near the Line of Control (LoC) in the Akhnoor sector on Tuesday.

Expressing profound grief over the loss of lives, the BJP stalwart asserted that such heinous acts of terrorism reflect Pakistan's growing frustration as peace and development continue to flourish in Jammu & Kashmir under the strong leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said Pakistan and its proxies are desperate to create an atmosphere of fear and instability, but their nefarious designs will never succeed.
