New Delhi: Political leaders across all parties in India have condemned the terror attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore.

Indian politicians have asked Pakistan to take stringent measures to dismantle the terror infrastructure that flourishes right under the nose of the Pakistani government.

“Indian National Congress expresses its deepest sympathies towards the players injured in the terror attack. It's the first time perhaps after the Munich Olympics in 1972, that the players who are supposed to act as a bridge between nations have been targeted,” said Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari:

The BJP has condemned the attack on Sri Lankan players. The party’s spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad said, “The attack indicates that Pakistan is becoming ungovernable. It also shows that Pakistan is the epicenter of world terror.”
