He told the terrorists that they wanted their help in this work. Major Sharma told both the terrorists that they had to attack the checkpoint of the army and for that, he had done the groundwork.

Both the terrorists made all arrangements in the days to come. Also called three terrorists from nearby villages. When Torara was doubted again, the Major said to him, “If there is any doubt about me, kill me.” Leaving the rifle with his hand, he said to the terrorists, “You can’t do this if you don’t believe me.” So you have no choice but to kill me now. ”
