Addressing the media, CRPF IG Akhilesh Prasad Singh remarked, “There are few people who have this kind of thinking, who have anti-national or anti-social thinking. Most people are good people, they do not want this kind of environment to exist. There is a small group who have such thinking. It is my hope that gradually they will also understand this and they will also join the mainstream…And as far as weapons are concerned, they have weapons, some are locally made, some have come from outside, some have been looted…”
