Jammu: Condemning the terrorist attack on IAF base in Pathankot as a dastardly act aimed at "derailing" the peace process between India and Pakistan, Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mufti Mohammed Sayeed has condoled the death of seven security force personnel in the attack.
Mufti who is undergoing treatment at AIIMS in New Delhi has deeply condoled the death of one Garud commando, one NSG officer and five personnel of Defence Security Corps(DSC), an official spokesman said.
Condemning the attack, the Chief Minister said such "dastardly acts are aimed at creating uncertainty and derailing the peace process between India and Pakistan".
Mufti Sayeed said his prayers are with the families of those who lost their dear ones in the attack. He conveyed his heart-felt sympathies to the bereaved families and prayed for peace to the departed souls.
Five terrorists have been neutralised in the operation. Seventeen security personnel were also injured in the gunbattle on Saturday at the air base, located barely 35 km from the Indo-Pak border.
