New Delhi, Sept 30 (IBNS) : The toll in the Uri terror attack rose to 19 as another solider succumbed to his injuries in a hospital in Delhi a day after the Indian Army's surgical strikes on terror launch pads across the Line of Control, reports said.

Naik Rajkisore Singh was brought to the army hospital in Delhi with severe gunshot wounds a day after the attack on an army base in Kashmir's Uri.

Singh, 35, hailed from Bihar's Arrah. He was the youngest of three brothers to serve the army.

His father was also in the Army.

He has a 12-year old daughter and a ten-year old son.

Pakistan-based terrorists had launched a pre-dawn attack on the Uri Army camp on September 20, in which 17 soldiers were killed.

Of the injured, one died the next day. Singh was the last one to succumb after battling for life for nine days.
