An encounter broke out between security personnel and Naxalites in Chhattisgarh's Bijapur district on Tuesday, a police official said.

The exchange of fire started this morning in the Indravati National Park forest when a team of security personnel was out on an anti-Naxal operation based on inputs about the presence of senior Maoist cadres, he added.

The intermittent gunfight was underway, and further details are awaited, he added.

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).
