    According to the police, the incident took place at Shaheed Gunj in Srinagar after which the entire area was cordoned off and a massive search operation was launched to track down attackers. The other injured person has been evacuated and is being treated by doctors, said reports. 

    Earlier, in October, a migrant worker from Uttar Pradesh was shot dead by terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama. It was the second terror attack in the region in just 24 hours. Inspector Masroor Ahmad Wani was shot thrice while he was playing cricket in the Eidgah area.

    In the past, several attacks on migrant workers have taken place in the Union Territory. Jammu and Kashmir has been rattled by such attacks and since October 2019, non-local workers have often been targeted by terrorists in the region.

    The attack in Srinagar today comes after a month when terrorists fired on army vehicles in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch, prompting soldiers to fire back. Reports indicated that the terrorists may have escaped after the initial exchange of gunfire, which included bullets fired from a nearby hill in the Krishna Ghati area.

The Income Tax team raided the premises of a major business group engaged in various sectors like cement, steel, glass, plywood, real estate, tourism, textiles and healthcare in Kashmir Valley. Sources said that during the raid, Income Tax officials have seized cash, documents and important evidence.

    Incriminating documents, handwritten diaries and digital devices have been seized during the search operation. Variation in stock was also seen in many factories and retail shops. Evidence has also been found of undeclared investments worth more than Rs. 50,000 in immovable properties located in the Kashmir Valley. The team has seized Rs 50 crore from various premises.

Seized evidence in the form of cash vouchers and selling challans in respect of Rs 60 crore in the last several years, which have not been recorded in the account books.

    Evidence and documents of on-money in the real estate business of the business group running in Kashmir and Delhi have been recovered.
