On 20 February 2016, 4 Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists armed with AK-47 Assault rifles, UBGL, hand grenades and explosives attacked a CRPF convoy on the main road linking Srinagar to Jammu, killing two police men and a civilian. The militants then took refuge in the government-run multi-storey "Entrepreneurship Development Institute" in Pampore. Units of the Indian Army and Central Reserve Police Force cordoned off the building and launched a joint operation to evacuate civilians from the building. For Security forces their main focus was to evacuate civilians to safety. Army and CRPF launched a joint operation with armored vehicles to evacuate 120 civilians from the building.The militants responded with automatic gunfire and hand grenades. During the ensuing battle, one soldiers (Capt. Pawan Kumar) from Army 10 para Special Forces unit lost his life.

X attacks Y and kills him. Y had a brother Z, who will avenge Y's death. Now X will be living in fear for his entire life because Z will haunt him. Z has the resources to hit X. Z has time and element of surprise on his side. It's all wait and watch.
