On Thursday, four terrorists belonging to Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed terror group were killed in the gunfight in Jammu's Nagrota area. The terrorists were planning a major terror attack on the anniversary of 26/11 Mumbai attacks.

They were travelling in a truck on the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway, which was intercepted by the police at a toll plaza near Nagrota.

The slain terrorists were carrying a huge quantity of arms and ammunition, including 11 AK-47 rifles and pistols and in all probability were planning something big, perhaps "disruption of district-level elections", a top police officer said.

On Thursday soon after the encounter, Jammu and Kashmir police held a press conference and said that the DDC polls could be the target of the slain terrorists.
