In Kulgam, security agencies launched a massive anti-terror operation and detained nearly 20 suspects for questioning. A security official said, "Police, CRPF and army have launched a massive search operation in Behibagh and adjoining areas in Kulgam district after the terror attack on Monday."

At the home ministry meeting, Shah received inputs from army officers posted in J&K and directed them to take an all-out approach to eliminate terrorism in the Union territory, sources said. "Army officials held extensive deliberations with the home minister on all aspects of security, ensuring that every measure is being taken to eliminate terrorism," a source said. The MHA will hold a second meeting on J&K security on Wednesday.
