Pulwama terror attack: NSG, NIA teams to join investigation
New Delhi, Feb 14: Experts of the anti-terror commando force National Security Guard (NSG) and investigators of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) are being sent to Jammu and Kashmir to join the probe into the terror attack in Pulwama in which at least 40 CRPF personnel were killed, officials said on Thursday.
The decision was taken in view of the high number of casualties in the worst terror strike in the state since the Uri attack in 2016.
