Srinagar/IBNS:  Body of a soldier who was buried under snow in an avalanche in Gulmarg sector in north Kashmir district of Baramulla was recovered after eight months, official sources said on Friday.

They said a soldier Rajinder Singh went missing after an avalanche near the Line of Control (LoC) in Gulmarg sector on January 8 this year.

Despite several rounds of search, the soldier could not be found due to very heavy snowfall.

The body was recovered today after snow melted, they said, adding that the body has been brought to a police station in Gulmarg.
