In the initial investigation, the security forces found out that all the three terrorists were not locals and belonged to a foreign land.

A huge cache of arms and ammunition have been seized by the forces from the spot.

The whole area has been sealed off and a massive search operation has been launched in the area.

The movement of the traffic in the area has also been stopped following the incident as a precautionary measure, the officials said.

The development comes only a few hours after Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his speech at 74th session of United Nations General Assembly, underlined that terrorism has become a challenge for all nations across the world and asked the international community to unite against the global menace for the sake of humanity.

"We believe that terrorism is not a challenge for anyone country, but for all countries and of mankind as a whole. So for the sake of humanity, all the world has to unite against terror," the Prime Minister said during his address to the 74th UN General Assembly on Friday.
