During his address Tipu said "India is churning out operatives of mayhem from its factories of terror". he added, "operatives like Commander Yadhav, who were involved in  sabotage activities, spreading terror and violence across Pakistan. We caught Yadhav red-handed, we will catch others as well and bring them to justice".

Amnesty has called on India to immediately ban the use of shotguns by government forces in suppressing anti-India protests in IHK.
