Jammu- Mobile Internet services were restored in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch and Rajouri districts a week after being suspended following a terror attack on two army vehicles, officials said.
The curbs were imposed last Friday as a precautionary measure to check rumour-mongering and prevent any law and order situation from arising.
“The services have been restored in the Rajouri-Poonch belt. The situation is normal,” Jammu region Divisional Commissioner Ramesh Kumar told PTI.
Three persons, who were among those detained for questioning by the Army after the terrorist ambush that left four personnel dead, were found dead mysteriously the next day.
Their bodies have been handed over to their families for last rites as investigation in continues in their deaths.
Meanwhile, security forces launched a search operation in a forest area in Rajouri district following information about the movement of suspicious elements, officials said.
Acting on the information from the Muradpur area of Kalakote, security forces launched the operation in the Afla, Muradpur, Bothni and Swani areas, they said.
Nothing came up so far, the officials said, adding the operation is still underway.
Last year, a similar suspicious sighting was reported in the same area, they said.
