Rajnath Singh said that the country is distraught and resentful. While some people with terrorism, the people of our country are with us. A zero-tolerance policy against terrorism continues and we will work together towards eradicating terrorism from Jammu and Kashmir.

After the all-party meet, Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad said, “We clarified what Congress President Rahul Gandhi has repeatedly said. The country is in mourning and is angry. Our party has decided that we will stand firmly with our security force and the government. There are various differences with the government but we stand with them to end terrorism. In today's meeting, the leaders of both Houses of Parliament were called. We requested the home minister that the prime minister should convene a meeting of all the chiefs of national and regional parties.”

Urging the government to take stern action against the attack, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut, said, "Resolutions were passed after Pathankot and Uri attack also. We have told them (central government) that they should now take action."
