The Tibri military station in Gurdaspur has been cordoned-off after two suspicious-looking men in military uniform were seen near the base.

The Tibri base is located 40 km from the Pathankot airbase which witnessed a 96-hour long siege this week.

Gurdaspur itself has been witness to a terror attack in June last year, when three fidayeen, attacked passengers in a moving bus and stormed a police station, killing seven persons, including an SP. The attackers were gunned down after a day-long operation. Security forces are presently carrying out combing operations near the camp.
