"These militants are very powerful... I feel young boys and girls should be imparted proper training so that they can drive militants away," she said.

"The training will enable the youth to handle firearms if need arises," Rukhsana said.

"Yesterday, they (militants) tried to attack my house. They want to burn my house," the 21-year-old girl said voicing concern about the safety of her family.

Trying to exact revenge, militants last night hurled two grenades at Rukhsana's house in Rajouri, but none was hurt.

Militants also fired at her house at Bhatti, a remote hamlet in Shadra-Sharief belt, at around 1045 hours.

Neither Rukhsana nor any member of her family was present at the house at the time of twin strikes.

The vengeance attack came over a month after she along with her brother Aijaz, aged 18, overpowered the LeT militants who had barged into their house, snatched an AK 47 from one of them and fired at him killing him instantly.

The remarkable courage of Rukhsana, who had never picked up a gun before the September 27 incident, came in for praise from President Pratibha Patil and Home Minister P Chidambaram during their visits to Jammu and Kashmir.
