They called for strictest action against perpetrators and demanded that the government permit Muslims to assist at the Pakistan border in combatting terrorism, emphasising their loyalty to the country.

Aman Khan, one of the protestors, said that they offered their Friday prayers with black ribbons to honour the victims of Pahalgam attack. “Killing of innocent tourists is an intolerable incident. We prayed for peace and prosperity of our country and complete end to terrorism,” he said.
