Army on Friday cordoned off Hamdard Grammar school in Hamdardabad area of Tral in south Kashmir’s Pulwama district and launched a cordon-and-search-operation.
A top army official of 42 RR told media that the searches were launched following a tip-off about the presence of militants inside the school.
“Large number of army soldiers are involved in the search operation which has caused fear among the staff and the students,” said school principal Riyaz Ahmad Shah.
The operation was going on when this report was being filed.
