The operation is in progress and UNi quoting sources reported that the militants tried to take advantage of poor visibility and bad weather.
Last week, BSF Director General Nitin Agrawal said that there are always attempts from across to push in more militants before the onset of winter and the closure of tracks due to heavy snowfall.
