A CRPF constable Praveen Singh Rajput, who was injured in the attack, later died on the way to hospital.
In a separate attack in the Bijbehara area of South Kashmir’s Anantnag district, at least two persons including a CRPF trooper were injured when suspected militants hurled a grenade late on Wednesday evening.
The police said CRPF jawan Ram Chand and a civilian were injured in a grenade blast at Arwani Chowk Bijbehara.
