Hours after the Indian military struck terror infrastructure in Pakistan and PoK in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack, Prime Minister Narendra Modi cancelled his upcoming three-nation visit to Croatia, Norway and the Netherlands.

The visits, planned for midway, were meant to push early conclusion of free trade agreements which are under consultations.

The Norway visit was timed with the third India-Nordic Summit where focus was to be on hi tech, renewables and investments. In the Netherlands, the Prime Minister was to focus on semiconductors, reinforcing the economic ties between India and the Netherlands.

Earlier, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh had cancelled his visit to Russia for the Victory Day event where MoS Defence Sanjay Seth will go.

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).
