Islamabad : It was after a long time that an act of terror happened in Rawalpindi in PirWadhai Bus Stand, quite close to the Inter-Junction Principal (IJP) Road, dividing federal capital from the province of the Punjab.
Besides the foreign funded acts of insurgency in Balochistan, which are continuing despite best efforts of the intelligence organisations backed by the law enforcing agencies (LEAs), this blast in Rawalpindi, that resulted in one unfortunate death and injuries to seven others, is indeed needed to be taken very seriously.
The warnings against possible occurrence of such acts of terror issued quite so often by the intelligence agencies have always been there.
