Srinagar, June 25 (IBNS): A massive gun battle is underway at the Delhi Public School (DPS) in Srinagar as security forces are trying to evacuate the premise where terrorists, after attacking the CRPF personnel in Pantha chowk area last evening, took shelter, reports said.

According to reports, the encounter started at 3:40 AM.

The terrorists took shelter at the building on Saturday evening after carrying out an attack on the 29th Battalion of the CRPF near the school on Srinagar-Jammu national highway around 5.50 pm.

When they entered the school premise, all staff and students had already left the campus.

In the Saturday's attack, a sub-inspector was killed while two jawans received injuries.

The security forces soon cordoned off the area and launched search operation.
