New Delhi, Sept 18 (IBNS): Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Sunday said perpetrators of Uri terror attack will be punished.

In his Twitter page, the Minister wrote: "Uri terror attack is a highly condemnable act of cowardice. Salute to our soldiers who gave supreme sacrifice to protect the motherland."

The state of Jammu and Kashmir on Sunday witnessed one of the deadliest attacks in a decade's time when four heavily armed terrorists sneaked into the 12 Brigade Army camp in Uri sector, leaving 17 jawans killed.
