BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari asked people to avoid visiting Muslim majority areas and said, "They (terrorists) killed people asking their religion (referring to Pahalgam attack)." "If you want to go to Kashmir, go to Jammu. Give priority to your life (Jaan pehle)," Adhikari added. The Trinamool Congress (TMC) called Adhikari's remarks "calculated communal provocation".
