Shawdesh Desk: Four people, including two civilians and two security forces personnel, were injured in a grenade attack in Srinagar’s Lal Chowk area on Sunday afternoon.

The injured have been shifted to the hospital and the explosion area has been cordoned, reports The Indian Express.
Militants hurled a grenade on the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel posted on duty near Pratap Park in busy Lal Chowk area of the city, a CRPF spokesperson said.

The loud explosion caused panic among the people, especially those who had come to the weekly flea market, also known as Sunday market, an official told news agency PTI.

Earlier this month, a civilian was injured after suspected militants lobbed a grenade in Srinagar’s old city.

Srinagar is the largest city of the Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
