President of India condemns terrorist attack on Bacha Khan University in Pakistan

The President of India, Shri Pranab Mukherjee has strongly condemned the terrorist attack on Bacha Khan University at Charasada, Pakistan today (January 20, 2016).

The President has said “I am deeply saddened to learn of the barbaric terrorist attack on Bacha Khan University at Charasada, Pakistan today. The attack is all the more condemnable as the terrorists chose for this heinous crime the death anniversary of the great Badshah Khan, who worked tirelessly for peace.

The strongly condemnable attack once again shows that no difference can be made between ‘good’ and bad terrorists and all forms of terrorism and all manner of support to them need to be completely eradicated.

I convey our heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families, and pray for the speedy recovery of the injured.”
