@Dj: No because intelligent people understand that these criminals are funded by India from bases across the border like in Afghanistan US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel announced. Until the border with Afghanistan is sealed anti state criminals will keep attacking no matter what government is in power. Why play petty politics when the root issue needs to be tackled of foreign funding for criminals?
Balochistan is under N leadership, will PTI be blamed for this incident as well?
