RAJOURI, Jan 31: A joint operation by Army and JKP led to swift and timely recovery of large cache of weapons and ammunition from dense forest area of Gadyog in Khawas area of Rajouri district today.
SSP Rajouri Chandan Kohli told the Excelsior that the desperate plan of militant organisations to revive terrorism in Rajouri and Reasi districts suffered a major setback when Army and J&K Police jointly carried out search operations in the forest area of Khawas tehsil in Rajouri district.
During the search operations, one AK 47 rifle, three magazines of AK 47, 94 rounds of AK 47 ammunition, two Chinese pistols, two pistol magazines, eight rounds of pistol ammunition, five UBGL grenades, one Kenwood radio set and three radio set antennae were recovered.
The timely recovery of huge cache of arms and ammunition has thwarted any possible untoward incident in otherwise peaceful region and has scuttled the nefarious plans of militant outfits to try derail peace and harmony in South of Pir Panjal Ranges,” Kohli said.
