Chandigarh, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Wednesday condemned the terrorist attacks in Jammu and Kashmir's Kathua and Doda districts in which a CRPF jawan was martyred.
Mann said in a statement here that a befitting reply should be given to such "anti-national" activities.
He said that any attack on the unity and integrity of the nation is unjustified and undesirable and should be given a befitting reply, the sovereignty of the country should always be upheld by thwarting such attacks.
He described the attack as "cowardly and inexcusable" and called for exemplary punishment to be given to the perpetrators so that it would serve as a deterrent to others in the future.
Mann also expressed grief over the killing of the CRPF jawan in the attack and called it an irreparable loss to the country in general and the soldier's family in particular.
A CRPF jawan was martyred and six security personnel were injured in two encounters with terrorists overnight in Kathua and Doda districts of Jammu and Kashmir.
In Doda, five Rashtriya Rifles personnel and a special police officer (SPO) were injured when terrorists attacked a joint check post in the upper reaches of Chatragalla on the Bhaderwah-Pathankot road.
Central Reserve Police Force jawan Kabir Das was seriously injured in firing by a terrorist hiding in Saida Sukhal village of Kathua district at around 3 am, officials said.
