New Delhi: Both Houses of Parliament on November 25 adopted a resolution deploring the attack on the Raghunath and Panchbakhtar temples in Jammu on November 24 saying it indicated the terrorists' desperation to disturb the delicate balance of peace in the state.

"We deeply mourn the loss of lives of innocent people and deplore in the strongest terms these dastardly acts of violence of the terrorists," the resolution read out by Presiding Officers of both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha said.

Members in both Houses stood in silence as a mark of respect in the memory of the people who died in the terrorist attack.

"This senseless act of violence by terrorists indicates their frustration at the successful completion of the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly election and their desperation to disturb the delicate balance of peace in the state," it said.
