The massive siege on the Entrepreneurship Development Institute (EDI) building in Pampore, Jammu and Kashmir continued for the third day on Wednesday as security forces neutralised two terrorists and continued operations to flush out the remaining holed up terrorists. Around three terrorists have been holed up inside the EDI building and counter operations have been underway for over 48 hours now to neutralise them. The terrorists who had entered the EDI complexes in the wee hours on Monday had fired upon the security forces triggering an encounter. According to reports, the terrorists arrived at the EDI complex from the rear using a boat on the Jhelum. Security forces used mortar shells, light machine guns and other small arms to flush out the terrorists but so far have only neutralised one.
