The attack led to the killing of four civilians and injuries to six others.These separate attacks are the third such incident of civilian killings in the Rajouri district in the past two weeks, after two people were killed outside an Army camp on December 16.The attack has sparked panic in the district. Several organisations have called for a strike today to protest against the incident and demand swift action.Army and the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) have launched a massive search operation to nab the two "armed men" behind the attack at Upper Dhangri village.The office of Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, Manoj Sinha has announced an ex-gratia of Rs 10 lakh and a government job to the kin of those killed in the firing incident."An ex-gratia of Rs 10 lakh and a government job would be given to the next of kin of each of those civilians martyred in the dastardly attack.
