Aspects of managing a connection in a wireless communication system are described. As an example, the aspects may include deleting, at a base station, context information associated with a radio connection of a user equipment (UE) with the base station when the base station stops serving the UE. Further, the aspects may include transmitting, by the base station, a context drop notification to one or more neighboring base stations, wherein the context drop notification indicates that the context information associated with the UE has been deleted at the base station. As such, based on associating the UE with the deleted context information, the base station or the one or more neighboring base stations may avoid attempting to fetch the context information of the UE from other neighboring base stations in response to receiving a connection re-establishment request from the UE.
