The arrest of the two terrorists is major crackdown amidst massive anti-terror operation by the Indian forces after Pahalgam terror attack. 

According to a senior official, the arrests were made after a thorough search, which led to the recovery of arms and ammunition, including two pistols, 25 pistol rounds, and two pistol magazines.
