Chandigarh, June 3

The Border Security Force (BSF) recovered a drone along with two pistols and 40 rounds of ammunition near the International Border in the Amritsar sector on Wednesday.

Based upon intelligence inputs, a search operation was launched near Nissoke village, during which the drone with a packet attached to it was found from the paddy fields, a BSF officer said.

“The marking on the ammunition proves it to be made in Pakistan, while the pistols are Glock variants. The packet was wrapped with yellow adhesive tape and four illuminating sticks were also attached to it,” he added. The drone is a China-made DJI Matrice 300 RTK quadcopter.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
