Wasim Kuchay, a resident of Barsoo village of Tral in Pulwama, was admitted to SMHS hospital here with bullet injury near neck, a police official said.
He said Kuchay was shot with a pistol near Nowdal and suffered injury, but his condition is stated to be stable.
Earlier, a firing incident took place at Nowdal Tral, following which security forces arrested a former militant Maqbool Ganai alias Firdous, who was associated with Hizbul Mujahideen, the official said.
The official said police were trying to ascertain whether there is any connection between the arrested ex-militant and the injured civilian.
Further details were awaited, the official said.
