May ALLAH grant jannah to those who died in the blast and save others who are injured and give them long healthy life.
As for blast it won't stop until TTP leaders are eliminated they are still alive and roaming free we should go for hot pursuit and eliminate TTP leaders inside Afghanistan.

This attack has written LEJ all over it. I was expecting like this after death of Malik Ishaq. Sadly intelligence agencies and LEA failed to avoid this attack. Anyways the filth is in Punjab now finally. And we have to fight it to eliminate terrorism completely from this country.
