He added, "During preliminary investigation, we found that the two had some connection to Pakistan and Punjab. We have identified the entire module." Issuing an advisory to residents amid rising winter inflow, the SSP urged strict tenant verification. "Since Jammu is our winter capital, there is a huge rush in Jammu in winter.

Speaking to ANI, Choudhary said the unexpected timing of the blast triggered panic among residents. "The news got out last night, and people panicked. There are blasts which are pre-planned by militants, but we don't know what to say about this unfortunate blast."

Reflecting on the decades-long cycle of violence in Jammu and Kashmir, he said, "It is unfortunate for J&K that we have been seeing such incidents since 35-36 years where personnel of security forces, civil administration, or even civilians have laid down their lives to keep this country strong."
