During a campaign rally in Kishtwar, Union home minister Amit Shah promised that the Modi government would eradicate terrorism in J&K. He criticized the National Conference-Congress alliance for pledging to release terrorists and restore Article 370 if elected. Shah also highlighted efforts to strengthen village defense guards and special police officers.

Amit Shah said that these bhandars will be opened for the common people from Tuesday in addition to the existing 21 such stores.
