Red alert issued in India along the border following Wagah border blast
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi Sunday condemned the suicide bomb blast at the main Pakistan-India border crossing at Wagah in Lahore.
“Terror attack in Pakistan near Wagah Border is shocking. I strongly condemn such a dastardly act of terrorism,” Modi said on his Twitter account. “My condolences to the families of the deceased. Prayers with the injured.”
The explosion came at Wagah border gate after the “flag-lowering” ceremony, a display of military pageantry that attracts thousands of spectators every day on both sides of the border, and is popular with foreign tourists.
RPS Jaswal, deputy inspector general of India’s Border Security Force which guards Wagah, said security has been increased although “our side is secure”.
“A red alert has been issued keeping in view the blast across the border in Pakistan,” Jaswal said by phone from his base near the Indian city of Amritsar.
The neighbours have had frosty relations since independence from Britain in 1947, fighting three full wars, two over the territory of Kashmir.
