Four terrorists crossed the Line of Control and killed 18 Indian soldiers in a pre-dawn attack in Uri earlier this month. Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated.
India finally retaliated by carrying out surgical strikes on terror launchpads in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir on Wednesday night.
Adnan Sami, who became an Indian citizen in January 2015 congratulated Prime Minister Modi and Indian army for "brilliant, successful and mature strike against terrorism".
Sami took to Twitter and posted this:
Big Congratulations to @PMOIndia & our brave Armed forces for a brilliant, successful & mature strategic strike against #terrorism ! #Salute

His tweet, however, didn't go well with the neighbours and they started bashing the artist.
