Abdullah blames Pakistan for assembly attack

Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah on Tuesday held Pakistan responsible for the attack on the state assembly, which claimed 34 lives and left nearly 70 injured.

"Pakistan is fully involved in the attack as Jaish-e-Muhammed militants, who carried out the attack, are trained in that country," Abdullah said after inspecting the assembly and council complex, a portion of which was gutted in the attack.

"We will revenge this attack and will not sit idle," the chief minister said, adding the attack on elected houses by Pakistan-based militants should serve as an eye-opener to the international community.

The chief minister said the state assembly as well as the council would resume work on Wednesday.
