A source in the know of developments of the show said there were other reasons for Sidhu’s ouster as well, but his comments over Pulwama were “surely one of them”. As many as 49 CRPF troopers lost their lives in the Pulwama terror attack in which their convoy was attacked. Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed claimed responsibility for it.
