It's been four years since the incident when a heartless terrorist attacked a vehicle with 40 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel. The attack made every citizen of the country mourn for the injustice to the martyred soldiers. The attack was planned by the terrorist organization Jaish-e-Mohammed. This organization is directly connected with Pakistan and this caused huge tension between India and Pakistan after the incident.
