New Delhi [India], May 8 (ANI): Congress leader Pawan Khera on Thursday slammed Pakistan over the Poonch Gurudwara attack, asserting that the "world must see" that India is destroying terror sites in Pakistan, but they are attacking Indian "civilians".
Pawan Khera said that Pakistan has been completely "isolated" in the present time and believed that it is "good" that India is conveying the situation to the world continuously.
"What is happening in Poonch, the way Pakistan is attacking the innocent civilians there, even a Gurdwara was damaged. The world must see that we are destroying the terror sites, which nurtured the terrorists who attack India, but Pakistan is attacking civilians. Pakistan has been completely isolated today... It's good that we are conveying the situation to the world continuously", Pawan Khera told ANI.
He further urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to attend the all-party meeting set to take place at 11 am on Thursday. He stated that the world would "listen" if PM Modi moves ahead by taking the opposition into "confidence".

We pay tribute to all the departed souls and express our deepest condolences to their families. We pray to Guru Sahib Ji to give place to the departed souls in his feet and give strength to the family members to bear this unbearable pain."
