Early Times Report
KUPWARA, Feb 26: The three persons who had gone for hunting were not traced yet as the search operation to trace out trio resumed today in Lolab area of this north Kashmir district.
According to sources that three persons who had gone for hunting along with two other persons came under a mudslide at Lashkote- the top forest area of Darpora which connects Lolab and Bandipora forest areas.
On Sunday a joint team of police, army, SDRF and local volunteers launched the rescue operation. They have also taken two persons who had survived miraculously to the spot to find out the missing, sources told early times.
However it is learnt that Director Disaster Management Amir Ali said that the minister Javid Mustafa Mir has directed Divisional Commissioner Kashmir to visit the spot and oversee the rescue operation.
The directions come a day after the minister for disaster management Javid Mustafa Mir directed Deputy Commissioners of Bandipora and Kupwara to visit the spot and carry out the operation to find out the missing trio.
Meanwhile, sources said that a team of the High Altitude Warfare School (HAWS) is likely to reach the spot today. The help of HAWS had been sought by the authorities for early recovery of the missing trio.
Missing trio identified as Altaf Ahmad Mir son of Bashir Ahmad Mir, Bashir Ahmad Ganie son of Ghulam Rasool Ganie and Ghulam Mohd Lone son of Ali Mohd Lone all residents of Warnow, Lolab.
The rescuers had suspended the operation overnight and have been resumed early Monday morning as there was heavy snow in the area which hampers the rescue operation in the area.
The SDRF team is assisted by 27 and 80 Rashtriya Rifles (RR) of India Army and they are on job and all efforts are on to trace those three persons who had gone for hunting when they were swept away by mudslide, sources added. |
