LAHORE: A major terror attack bid was foiled today in Pakistan as security forces killed seven militants who were plotting to attack key Government installations in the country’s Punjab province.

According to the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) of Punjab Police, it had received information that around 10 to 12 militants were planning to attack sensitive installations and buildings of law enforcement agencies here.
