Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama district witnessed one of the deadliest terror attacks when as many as 40 CRPF personnel were killed when their convoy was targeted on the Srinagar-Jammu National Highway on February 14, 2019.
The convoy comprised 78 buses, carrying around 2,500 personnel from Jammu to Srinagar.
Pakistan-based terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammad claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was caused by a suicide bomber, according to a local news agency.
India launched a series of counter-terror operations, including airstrikes at terror camps in Pakistan.
