The policeman, who was injured in a terrorist attack on National Conference (NC) leader Ghulam Mohiuddin Mir's convoy in Jammu and Kashmir's Pulwama district, succumbed to his injuries on Wednesday evening.
The terrorists earlier attacked a police party guarding the NC leader and former Rajpora MLA when he was on his way to attend a marriage function.
The security forces have cordoned off the area and launched a massive manhunt to nab the terrorists.
