"Terrorist fired upon two outside labourers (01 from Bihar & second from Nepal), who were working at a private SAPS school at #Bondialgam in Anantnag district. Both of them are being shifted to hospital," the Kashmir Zone Police said in a tweet.

"This is a cowardice and inhumane act of terrorism. The victims were called by terrorist to come out to engage in a work. Once both came out, terrorist fired upon them with pistol. We are investigating on top priority. Culprit would be brought to justice soon," said ADGP Kashmir.

Attacks on non-locals have increased since August especially after Lashkar-e-Taiba backed terror group Kashmir Fight threatened to intensify attacks on non-locals in view of Jammu and Kashmir's Chief Electoral Officer's decision to give voting rights to people from other states.
