A joint check-point of police and the Army was set up at Zuhama in Baramulla, 55 kms from here, following information about possible movement of militants through the area, a police official said.
He said two militants on a motorcycle, upon noticing the security team, made a U-turn some distance away.
As the security forces gave a chase, the militants hurled a grenade at them, resulting in minor injuries to two policemen, the official said.
He said a manhunt has been launched to nab the militants.
