The incident took place in the forests near Tarlaguda and Tarud villages, around 450 kilometres from here, when a team of the CAF's 12th battalion was out on an area domination operation, a police official told PTI.
The two have been identified as assistant platoon commander Puran Singh and constable Bhuvaneshwar Yadav.
While passing through a dirt track, Singh and Yadav stepped on an improvised explosive device that used a pressure mechanism, triggering a blast that left the two injured, officials informed.
