Kashmir Jammu/UNI: Joint teams of security forces have launched a Cordon and Search Operation in the Thannamandi belt of Rajouri district in Jammu and Kashmir, official sources here said on Saturday.
They said that the traffic has also been suspended from Thannamandi to Rajouri due to ongoing CASO in village Khablan and surrounding areas of the district.

It is a joint operation by Army, Police, Special Operation Group and paramilitary forces.
