To foil any infiltration bid, troops later laid cordons in Dharana, Chajla and Beri Rakh forests and started searches which continued till late this evening.Sources said about six militants infilrated into India from Phagwari Gali area last night when a new army unit was being deployed in the area.
Army, however, strongly denied reports of any infiltration. |
