Srinagar: An unidentified terrorist was killed in an ongoing exchange of fire that broke out in the Aragam area of north Kashmir’s Bandipora district on Sunday night, reported India Today quoting police sources.

Initially, there were reports that two terrorists were hiding in the area.

Meanwhile, in the wake of the recent terror attack in the Jammu region, Chief of Defense Staff General Anil Chauhan will visit Jammu on Monday to take stock of the security situation.

He’s expected to hold a meeting at White Knight Corps headquarters in Nagrota, where he will be briefed about the current security situation in the region.
