Acting on a tip off, BSF's 13 battalion conducted combing operation in the area and recovered 2 SBML guns, one IED, three kg of ammonium nitrate, detonators, petrol, 12 volt battery from the hideout under Machkund police station area on Wednesday, they said.
The arms and explosives have been hidden in a bunker in the forest. It is suspected that the rebels had stored those to attack the jawans in future, they said.
