As per sources privy to the development, this large recovery of arms and ammunition could have been part of any planned strikes to derail the peace and harmony in the region.

The recovery of the cache has thwarted the nefarious plans of the terrorist outfits to launch any such lethal strike in the region.

On September 30, terrorists hurled a grenade and opened fire at a police station in Shopian district of Jammu and Kashmir. A policeman got injured in this terrorist attack and later succumbed to his injuries. (ANI)
