[DAWN] Pakistain will have to pay for Saturday’s bad boy attack on an Indian army camp in Sunjuwan in Jammu, Indian Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman warned on Monday, a day after Islamabad urged New Delhi not to whip up war hysteria.Ms Sitharaman alleged that the attack in Sunjuwan was carried out by Jaish-e-Mohammed bad boys. She added that the perpetrators were assisted by Pakistain.
Addressing a presser over the security situation in Jammu, she said JeM chief Masood Azhar was the criminal mastermind of the attack while there was also local support to the assault.
On Sunday, Pakistain’s foreign ministry strongly rejected similar allegations voiced by the Indian media.
"A particular section in the Indian media runs with their innuendos to malign Pakistain and whips up public frenzy. We are confident that the world community would take due cognisance of India’s smear campaign against Pakistain, and the deliberate creation of war hysteria," the foreign ministry statement said.
