Seven people, including locals, non-locals, and a doctor, working at the construction site of a key infrastructure project, were killed and a few others were injured in a terrorist attack at Gagangir in Jammu and Kashmir on Sunday evening (Oct 20), just days after an elected government led by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah came to power in the Union Territory. Some of those who died in the attack were reportedly migrant workers.
The firing incident happened close to a campsite of the Z-mode tunnel at Gagangeer in the Sonamarg area of Ganderbal district.
The local police and security personnel from the Central Reserve Police Forces (CRPF) rushed to the spot and cordoned off the area.
