SaturdayтАЩs encounter has started in the heart of Srinagar cityтАЩs old downtown area. It is for the first time in more than 10 years that an encounter has started in old city area of Srinagar. This area was once the hotbed of separatist sentiment and militants used to move freely in this area. With the passage of time, security forces managed to eliminate militancy from these areas. It was believed that Srinagar city in general and the downtown areas in particular had been cleared of militancy.┬аSrinagar Encounter: Gunfight Breaks Out Between Terrorists and Security Forces in Khanyar Area in Jammu and Kashmir, Search Operation On (Watch Video).

Both injured were immediately shifted to the hospital where doctors described their condition as stable.
