"Search operation in the villages of Sunderbani was going on since last two days after some specific inputs and last night, a strong input was developed after which a joint column of police, army and BSF launched an operation in the area Rawariya Talla near a security establishment," he said.
“Today morning, militants hiding in bushes fired on search party after which whole area was cordoned by police, army and BSF while additional reinforcement was also rushed to the spot and fierce gunfight started."
