An alert has been sounded as officials fear that Thakur might have sided with the militants in the Valley.
The separatists have called a week-long protest to mark the first death anniversary of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani.
Wani was killed in a gunfight in Kokarnag area of Anantnag district on July 8, 2016.
The Hizbul militant’s death triggered a summer of discontent and months of violence in Kashmir that left nearly a hundred people dead.
