Doda, (DD): In a concerning development, Jammu and Kashmir Police have discovered several Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) flags and around 30-35 balloons in the Gurakhara area of Gandoh, Doda.
The items, suspected to have drifted across the border, were found hanging from trees in the region.
Upon receiving the information, a police team led by SHO Gandoh Shahnawaz Geri rushed to the spot and began efforts to remove the flags and balloons.
