Two security personnel were martyred in a terror attack on an Army quick-reaction team on the outskirts of Srinagar today.
The police said the quick-reaction team came under indiscriminate firing by three militants in the HTM area of Srinagar.
PM: Won’t forget Mumbai attack
India cannot forget Mumbai attack. Today’s India is facing terrorism with new strategy and new polity. I praise those security officers who have been playing major role in securing the country.
Kashmir IG Vijat Kumar said, “Three terrorists opened fire on our Army soldiers. Two jawans were critically injured, who reportedly succumbed to their injuries. Jaish has active movement in this area. Terrorists fled in a car. Two of them are probably Pakistanis.”
A defence spokesperson is reported to have said, “They (the injured soldiers) were evacuated to a nearest medical facility. However, they succumbed to their injuries.”
The security forces have cordoned off the area and launched a search operation to track down the assailants, he said. “Being a crowded area, our men exercised restraint to avoid any civilian casualty and collateral damage,” he added. The attack comes just two days ahead of the District Development Council (DDC) elections in Jammu and Kashmir. Security forces have been getting inputs that terrorists were planning attacks to disrupt the elections. — TNS
Pakistan yet to nab 19 Lashkar terrorists for role in 26/11
Lahore: Twelve years after the 26/11 attack, Pakistan has placed 19 members of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) on a list of “most wanted terrorists” for their role in the heinous assault, but it has not initiated any serious effort to nab them or punish seven others already facing trial. The security agencies here are clueless about the whereabouts of these 19 terrorists. PTI
