Director Vivek Agnihotri also shared a video from the screening where the officer can be seen sharing his experience during the exodus in 1990. He said, “I was a young Captain of Indian Army in North Kashmir during 1990 exodus of Kashmiri Pandits. Saved few families. I was Corps Commander of Kashmir on 5th August, 2019. We removed Article 370 from J&K.”
Lt. Gen. Dhillon received a huge round of applause after he spoke. Watch the video:
After receiving a positive review, Vivek Agnihotri replied on Twitter, Thank you General sahab. I truly appreciate your kindness.”
