Pakistan-based terrorist group Jaish-e-Mohammed triggered a car bomb on the Srinagar-Jammu highway. A Mahindra Scorpio, driven by one Adil Ahmad Dar alias "Waqas Commando" carrying more than 350 kg of explosives rammed into a bus carrying 39 personnel.

A day after the deadly attacks, India has summoned the Pakistan High Commissioner. Foreign Secretary Vijay Gokhale called Pakistan Envoy Sohail Mahmood to the Foreign Ministry office.
