After his release, Wani worked on the plans towards the procurement of arms from Pakistan- administrated Kashmir. A day before he left for Pakistan-administrated Kashmir while serving meals at the wedding reception, he overheard Mohiuddin Shah, a veteran National Conference politician talking about the futility of agitations against the government.
