Terrorists Sunday night carried out a ''Fidayeen'' (suicide) attack on an army camp located on the outskirts of Baramulla town, less than a week after the Indian Special Forces smashed seven terror launch pads during a surgical strike across the Line of Control (LoC).

The spokesman for Srinagar-based XV corps Col Rajesh Kalia said terrorists fired at an army camp at Jabanzpora in Baramulla and the firing was still on.

The camp is located 54 kms from here.

Official sources said firing was reported at 46 battalion of Rashtriya Rifles and terrorists were believed to have entered the establishment through the adjacent BSF camp.

Sources said there was some firing from adjacent houses located near the camp.

The attack comes following intelligence inputs about possible terrorist attacks on security installations in Jammu and Kashmir after the Indian army carried out surgical strikes on September 29.

Today's strike comes exactly a fortnight after terrorists struck at army brigade headquarters at Uri, 102 kms from here killing 19 soldiers.

Meanwhile, anti-India slogans were raised from Pakistani side during the evening retreat ceremony at the Attari-Wagah border, prompting BSF to register a protest with the Pak Rangers.

People seated in viewers gallery on the Pakistani side raised anti-India slogans at least for ten minutes, Indian officials posted at the Attari border said.

Officials said that some stones were also thrown from Pakistani side a few minutes before the beginning of the retreat ceremony.

Officials said BSF had a flag meeting with the Pakistani Rangers after the 50 minute ceremony ended.

“There was sloganeering and unruly conduct by the spectators from the Pakistani side. There were some reports about pelting of stones also... We called a flag meeting with the Rangers and told them about the issue,” a senior BSF official said.
