For terrorists from J&K hiding across the Line of Control, he said that if they tried to come back to carry out terror activities, they will be killed.
“There are inputs that the active terrorists keep shuffling from Kulgam-Shopian to Rajouri-Poonch range. Three have been killed and operations are on eliminate remaining as well,” he said.
