Jammu: The Army launched a search operation on Tuesday night after establishing contact with a group of terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir’s Udhampur district, officials said.

Acting on specific intelligence inputs, a joint operation involving the Indian Army and police was launched in the Akar forest near Patnitop, they said.

A contact has been established with the terrorists, and the operation is currently underway, the officials said.

Security forces have been monitoring a group of terrorists in the Udhampur district, particularly in the Basantgarh area, for the past week.
