He made the statement in response to the position shared by American president Donald Trump on the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. Pahalgam's terrorist attack was one of the largest terrorist attacks after the repeal of article 370 in 2019. After the terrorist attack, the security forces launched the research operations on Wednesday to find responsible terrorists.

Security has been reinforced since the attack, with visuals in the area showing the deserted streets in the generally lively tourist area. Many organizations also asked for a Jammu Bandh after the attack.
