A convoy of CRPF which had 70 buses was attacked on the Jammu-Srinagar highway on February 14. A Mahindra Scorpio, laced with nearly 350kg of explosives, rammed into a bus. In the dastardly attack, 40 jawans lost their lives and nearly 50 were seriously injured.

"Considering the status, team would continue with sifting of material tomorrow too. Outcome would be made known after analysis is over," NIA was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.

The high-level meeting was attended by NSA Ajit Doval and Union Ministers Rajnath Singh, Nirmala Sitharaman, Sushma Swaraj, and Arun Jaitley. In a tweet, PM Modi assured that the sacrifices of the soldiers "won't go in vain".
