“The search operation by security forces was suspended last night due to darkness only to be resumed with the first light this morning in the woods,” official sources said.
Security forces have sealed the entire forest area to foil any attempt by the militants to escape, they said.
However, they said it was not immediately clear how many militants are there.
No fresh contact was established with the militants after the first encounter immediately after a group of infiltrators sneaked into this side from Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) in Machil sector on Friday.
