Srinagar: The National Investigation Agency has raided 56 places across 14 districts in Jammu and Kashmir. The raids are being conducted on the allegations of providing financial assistance to terror activities.
The raids were conducted in Srinagar, Budgam, Ganderbal, Baramulla, Kupwara, Bandipora, Anantnag, Shopian, Pulwama, Kulgam, Ramban, Doda, Kishtwar, and Rajouri districts with the help of CRPF and Jammu and Kashmir police.

Raids were conducted across 14 places on July 31, as well. Police officials have informed that ten persons have been arrested so far in the terror funding case. Ten government officials were suspended recently for the same.
