State BJP strongly condemned the murderous attack on its MLA of Samba Dr. D.K. Manyal who was attending the cremation of those killed in the mishap when the overloaded bus crashed with a Trolly because of rash driving, The attack was made by some miscreants on the MLA, who reached on the spot of accident and helped in arranging the vehicle to carry the injured to Samba Hospital and Jammu Medical College.

The miscreants pelted stones on the MLA causing serious injuries to him and also damaged his Scorpio Vehicle. The party demanded arrest of all those involved in the attack and those behind the scene; managing the attack. The State BJP asked for loading the stern and appropriate clauses against the assailants.
