National Conference leader and former J&K chief minister Omar Abdullah took to Twitter and condemned the act. "Shocked & deeply saddened by the murderous militant attack on Ambreen Bhat. Sadly Ambreen lost her life in the attack & her nephew was injured. There can be no justification for attacking innocent women & children like this. May Allah grant her place in Jannat," he said.

“No words are strong enough to condemn heinous terror attack in Budgam. My deepest condolences to the family of Amreen Bhat & prayers for the fast recovery of her injured nephew. We’re firmly resolved to demolish the terror ecosystem that continues to receive reinforcement from across the border," said J&K Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha.

“We strongly condemn the killing… dastardly act of senseless violence,” the Sajad Lone-led Peoples Conference said.
