The commandos had certain exchange of fire rounds with the terrorists, but no success in hunting down on terrorists.
The speedy work to nab the terrorists at the Nariman house is still on, but yet the commandos have not made any success in arresting or killing the terrorists. The major problem has been the hostages, who are still inside the house.
