Expressing her distress and seeking justice, Devoleena appealed to the Indian government, including External Affairs Minister Dr. S Jaishankar and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, along with the US Embassy, to intervene in the investigation. She urged authorities to expedite the process of claiming Amarnath's body and uncovering the truth behind his senseless killing.
