According to Srinagar based news agency GNS, the two militants who were earlier SPOs in police department and had deserted with their service rifles were killed in a gunfight with army at Gadi Nallah in the district.
The two militants have been identified as Reyaz Ahmad and Ghulam Muhammad Mangnooand both are the residents of the Doda.
