Reports said that scores of the youth from Khudwani and its adjoining areas took to streets and clashed with the forces during CASO. Forces resorted to tear gas and pellets to chase away the protestors, triggering more clashes.
They said that at least three people received injuries during clashes which were going on when reports last came in.
A senior Police officer said that the CASO was launched following inputs about the presence of militants in the area.
“The operation was going on when the reports last came in though no contact was established with militants so far,” he said.
