"Pakistan is a terrorist state, and it needs to be identified and allocated as such," tweeted the Minister of internal Affairs of India Rajnath Singh. Many television news channels of India, people beat the drums and call for war. India wants to erase Pakistan from the face of the earth. Given that both countries possess nuclear Arsenal, it could become a limiting factor.

Advisor on foreign Affairs to the Prime Minister of Pakistan Sartayev Aziz, issued a statement, saying that the country "categorically rejects the baseless and irresponsible accusations which are leveled by senior officials in the government of Prime Minister modi." The Ministry of foreign Affairs of Pakistan said that India is "desperately looking for ways to divert world attention from the situation in Indian Kashmir", referring to the protests and riots there.
In new York on Monday, the Indian journalist reportedly asked to leave a press briefing Pakistani foreign Minister.
The attack Sunday is not the first deadly attack on Indian soil. In January, another Indian military base was attacked in the North-West of the Punjab, near the border with Pakistan. And then there was the attack in Mumbai in 2008, which killed 164 people. While Indian officials continue to associate these attacks with the government of Pakistan, Islamabad has consistently denied any involvement.
