An X (formerly Twitter) handle by the name of 'Abbu Jatt' later claimed responsibility for the attack and said that if their “demands are not met” even worse things could happen. They also said that their “brothers are out there”. 


"We are claiming responsibility for what went down today, the firing outside the Mirasahib Khajuria (sweet shop). If our words go unheeded, this could get even worse. We are here but our brothers are still out there. So don't mistakenly assume that we have turned over a new leaf and are practising peace. If our demands are not met, the next bullet won't be fired in the air," read the post, which was in Hindi.
