Speaking in the Senate, Kamal said no one responsible for the tragedy would be spared, and that the government would support efforts to prevent such incidents in the future.\n\nAccording to Dawn, Kamal expressed sorrow at the loss of life, saying \"there can be no explanation for this.\" He stated that he was holding himself responsible and had presented himself to be held accountable. The minister called for a holistic approach to investigating the incident and urged that any committee formed to probe should not be time-bound.\n\nKamal also emphasized that the tragedy cannot be allowed to fade from public attention after a few days. He invited the Senate to work towards finding a way forward, suggesting they examine their resources, management, and actions, and involve everyone to prevent similar incidents.",
