Pulwama attack: India summons Pak envoy, demands action against Jaish

India summoned Pakistan envoy Sohail Mahmood to lodge a strong protest over the suicide bombing in south Kashmir's Pulwama by Pakistan-based terror group Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM). Foreign Secretary Vijay Gokhale told the high commissioner that Pakistan must take “immediate and verifiable action” against the Jaish-e-Mohammed terror group that has claimed responsibility for Thursday's attack in Kashmir. A Jaish suicide bomber on Thursday rammed a car packed with explosives into a CRPF convoy on the Jammu-Srinagar highway. The CRPF has confirmed 38 deaths in the suicide bombing, counted among the bloodiest in Kashmir. Initial reports, quoting security officials, had said 44 jawans were feared to have been killed in the attack.
