As per a statement by HQ SW Command, the firing took place at around 0435 hours and the Station Quick Reaction teams were activated while the area has been sealed off . The search operation is in progress. The entire cantonment area has been sealed and the army is not telling anything to the state police department. And the access to the public and media has been completely denied.
The incident comes as a shock to many as the Cantonment areas are generally considered one of the safest areas of any city in particular. Yet incidents as these comes as a shock to people having such notions. Questions are now being raised about the safety of the people who are in charge of the safety of civilians.
