Govt vows decisive action against Fitna al-Hindustan after Khuzdar attack
Pakistan’s civil and military officials on Friday squarely blamed India for the May 21 terrorist attack on a school bus in Khuzdar, Balochistan, accusing New Delhi of sponsoring proscribed Balochi outfits that they termed Fitna al-Hindustan. The bombing claimed the lives of six children and injured 51 others.
Interior Secretary Captain (retd) Khurram Muhammad Agha and DG ISPR Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry held a joint press conference in Islamabad where they strongly condemned the “cowardly attack on innocent lives” and promised to respond.
Captain Agha said, “Our response will be decisive. They will not succeed.” He also said the attack wasn’t just a random act of terrorism but a planned attempt to strike at “Pakistan’s traditions and educational values.”

The interior secretary said that early investigations show that ‘’Fitna al-Hindustan’’ was behind the bombing and accused India of changing its strategy after military failures in the region.
He said, “After the failure of Operation Sindoor, India instructed its proxies to carry out attacks in Balochistan,” and added that now soft targets like schoolchildren are being chosen on purpose to create fear.
He also mentioned that the Ministry of Interior, along with the Balochistan government, is doing a full review of the attack and promised full support to the families of the victims.
