In a first bulldozer action against terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir, the authorities have demolished the house of a terrorist in Pulwama.
Officials said the home of Ashique Nengroo, a Pakistan-based terrorist, was built on encroached government land at Pulwama district's Rajpora.
The bulldozers were pressed into service to demolish the two-storey house at New Colony neighbourhood. The police accompanied the demolition team.
Nengroo moved to Pakistan in 2019. He is suspected be behind several terror attacks.
A few months ago, Nengroo's brother Manzoor Ahmad, a cook, was killed.
The police said Manzoor was killed due to rivalry among terrorist groups and his bullet-riddled body was found at an orchard in Shopian.
