A cadre belonging to the Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang was killed and another injured during an exchange of fire with the Assam Rifles here on Friday, police said.
The incident was reported at Ozakho village in Longding district of Arunachal Pradesh.
"The incident was reported around 12.30 p.m. The exchange of fire was between Assam Rifles and NSCN (K). We are yet to get further information," Sandeep Goel, Director General of Arunachal Pradesh police, told IANS.
