Amritsar, Nov 5 (ANI): A legislator from Pakistan Punjab Assembly, Suraiya Naseem termed the suicide attack at Wagah border as 'failed conspiracy' to create differences between the two neighbours, amid paying her respect at the Sikh shrine, Golden temple, in Amritsar recently. At least 60 people were killed and 110 wounded on November 02, when the explosion ripped through a car park about 500 metres from Pakistan's border gate just as hundreds of people left the daily performance. At least two Pakistani Taliban splinter groups have claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was revenge for the army's military operation against insurgents in the tribal region of North Waziristan.
