There is no official confirmation on number of militants involved in the attack
Militants stormed the premises of the District Police Lines in Pulwama on Saturday morning. One policeman, identified as Imtiyaz Ahmad Sheikh, was killed in the attack.
At least six security personnel are believed injured in the ongoing encounter.
"An operation to flush out militants is on in the area. Firing is still on," said a police official, refusing to divulge any further details.
There is no official confirmation on number of militants involved in the attack, which reportedly looks like a fidayeen (suicide) attack. The attack took place around 4:30 a.m.
Preliminary reports suggest militant opened indiscriminate fire and stormed into the premises, which houses policemen and CRPF.
Unconfirmed reports suggest three Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel and three policemen were injured in the attack.
The area is being sealed as more security personnel were rushed to the encounter site.
