Srinagar, The Army on Saturday launched a major counter-terrorist operation in Jammu and Kashmir's Shopian district after two local terrorists belonging to the banned Lashkar-e-Taiba were cornered in a dense orchard, officials said.
Acting on a specific intelligence input on the presence of terrorists in the area, a joint team comprising various columns of Army, Jammu and Kashmir Police, and the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) laid a tight cordon around the Meemandar area.
