Mangaluru: A Tulu Nadu boy was one among the brave soldiers who successfully gunned down terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir recently.

The young soldier Zubair, the second son of Samoon Byari and Aminamma couple, hails from Neranki  of Bajattur village in Kadaba taluk was a part of the team who were successful in striking down the militants. 

Zubair pursued his education at the government higher primary school at Haleneranki and secondary education at Sri Ramakunjeshwara. He later completed his PUC and BBM courses at St Philomena College.

It may be recalled here that two Lashkar-e-Taiba(LeT) militants were killed by security forces in Srinagar's Karan Nagar area on Tuesday after a gunfight of nearly 30 hours that had started after a failed attack bid on a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) camp in Kashmir.

Zubair has uploaded a video of the operation on his Facebook wall, which has gone viral. In social media platforms, Zubair has earned a lot of appreciation for the successful operation.

However, it is a matter of pride for the coastal region that our boy was a part of the team which gunned down terrorists.
