The statement comes two days after a terror attack on a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) camp in Jammu and Kashmir left five security personnel dead.
Heavily-armed militants stealthily entered the camp in Lathpora area about two hours after midnight, hurling grenades and resorting to indiscriminate gunfire.
The Union government has faced the ire of the opposition following reports that despite receiving a tip-off about an impending fidayeen strike, the security forces failed to prevent the attack.
