In a separate encounter in Tral area of Pulwama on Friday morning, two unidentified militants were gunned down by security personnel, the police added.
Jammu and Kashmir has been without an Assembly since August 5, 2019, following the abrogation of Article 370 and the division of the state into two Union Territories.
The Jammu and kashmir police also said it busted a Jaish module that wanted to carry out Pulwama-style Improvised Explosive Device (IED) attack on the highway in Kashmir Valley.
He said the northern command remained on the highest alert and made possible what was believed impossible by the bravery, grit, and determination of its personnel in the face of challenging situations along the border.
An elaborate industrial blueprint rolls out for J&K—New Delhi says it fills a gap Article 370 had created. The local economy, storm-hit and comatose, views it with suspicion.
What was supposed to be India’s watchdog against rights violations has turned into what critics call a government arm for obfuscation and occasional apologies
So it was not 'land jihad' after all. Usual corrupt officials aside, Hindus in Jammu benefited ten times more, and paid far less under the old law to transfer state land.

Opening up J&K’s land to ‘outsiders’ is touted to be a pro-development measure, but restrictions continue in many other states, including BJP-ruled ones
