NEW DELHI: Indian authorities, while condemning the devastating suicide attack at Wagah border, have asked Pakistan to take action against all terrorist groups without being selective.

In a statement issued by India’s ministry of external affairs on Monday, New Delhi decried “the dastardly terrorist attack against innocent civilians”, who were “mercilessly targeted by terrorists” at Wagah.

Earlier, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi also condemned the suicide bomb attack at innocent civilians in which at least 55 people, including 11 women and three Rangers personnel, were killed and over 200 critically wounded.

“There is no grievance or political goal so great, as to justify such a cowardly act. We believe that only the firmest and most comprehensive action against all terror groups without any distinction is the only way to defeat this evil scourge,” said the New Delhi’s statement.
