A day after a person was killed by mortar explosion in the Indian Army’s Ballaliang firing range near Loiliang village of Itanagar, more unexploded mortars have been found.

In a search conducted by a joint team of police officials and army along with the local villagers many misfired mortars were discovered.

The agitated villagers are planning to submit a memorandum to the Deputy Commissioner of Lohit on Monday.
