In a televised address, Khan said Pakistan was ready to take action against anyone found to be behind the bomb attack. The bomb attack was carried out by a 20-year-old man from a village in Indian Kashmir. "If you think that you will launch any kind of attack on Pakistan, Pakistan will not just think about retaliation, Pakistan will retaliate," Khan said. The United States had told India it supported its right to defend itself against cross-border attacks, India said. Jammu and Kashmir, a former princely state on the border between India and Pakistan, has been in dispute since the partition of India in 1947.
