Mumbai: Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday said the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi will soon hunt down the masterminds of the attack and bring them to justice.
Fadnavis, who holds the home portfolio, emphasised that the assault was on Indians and there should be no politics over the massacre of innocent civilians.
To a query on the terror assault taking place after a new government was sworn in post-assembly polls in J&K last year, Fadnavis said, “It is true such an attack didn’t happen when the Lieutenant Governor was in charge [of the administration]. But we are with the government [of the Union Territory] and this was an attack on Indians.”
Talking to reporters in Pune, Nationalist Congress Party (SP) working president Supriya Sule said, “This is not the time to play the blame game. Safety is paramount. Till the home minister [who visited Kashmir after the attack] comes out with a statement, we, as responsible public representatives, should speak with a lot of caution.”
