An Army officer was killed in a gunfight that broke out between security forces and terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir's Doda district on Wednesday. A terrorist was also shot down by the security forces.
The encounter broke out in a thickly forested area during a cordon and search operation (CASO) launched by a joint team to track down a group of terrorists hiding in the Shivgarh-Assar belt in Doda's Assar area.
According to Defence Ministry officials, Captain Deepak Singh belonged to the Army's Corps of Signals and was on deputation with 48 Rashtriya Rifles (RR).
He was made a field Major to lead a company in the operation, the officials said.
"A captain of the Indian Army from the 48 Rashtriya Rifles was killed in action during the ongoing Op Assar in Doda district. Operations are still in progress," Defence Ministry officials said.
