Jammu and Kashmir Vichar Manch (JKVM) today condemned the terror attack on the army camp at Uri and demanded "snapping" of diplomatic relations with Pakistan.
"We demand snapping of diplomatic relations with terrorism-sponsoring Pakistan by recalling the High Commissioner," a JKVM spokesman said, adding the Central government should declare Pakistan High Commissioner as "persona non grata".
"Inflict adequate injury on the enemy (Pakistan) in the retaliatory action and destroy terror infrastructure across LoC and International Border in Jammu and Kashmir," the spokesman said.
JKVM said the "preventive steps claimed to have been taken" are proving inadequate to stop Pakistan from carrying out terror strikes repeatedly on the Indian soil.
"It is no doubt a failure of the administration to prevent such attacks," he said.
JKVM said the attack is a warning sign for the BJP-led NDA government headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi who on several occasions had promised people of the country a retaliation for such acts to stop Pakistan not to repeat its misadventure.
"Pakistan had chosen to pay no heed thereby conveying to the India that it does not take the country seriously," the spokesman said.
