We have very close proximity. Once some travelers from Gujarat were attacked by terrorists, eight people died in it. At that time, I got a call from Ghulam Nabi Ji first and that phone was not just for informing, his tears were not stopping. Ghulam Nabi Ji was constantly monitoring this incident. They were concerned about him as if they were members of his family. Pranab Mukherjee was the defense minister at that time. I told him that if an army airplane is found to bring the dead bodies, he said, "Don't worry, I do the system." Ghulam Nabi Ji was at the airport that night. I will never forget the efforts of Ghulam Nabi Azad and the efforts of Pranab Mukherjee. ''
