New Delhi, September 1

The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) today claimed that in a joint operation with the local police, its personnel have recovered arms and ammunitions among other items in the Sadra Bagh forest area of Ganderbal district.

In a Twitter post, the CRPF said, “Rounds of AK-47, two magazines, loose 9 mm rounds, various other rounds and several hand grenades were recovered early in the morning by @crpf_srinagar with Ganderbal Police from Sadra Bagh forest area.”

Officials said the Special Operation Group (SOG) and CRPF’s 118 Battalion launched a search operation in Sarda Bagh forests and recovered the cache of ammunition from a hideout. They said a case had been registered in this regard and further investigation was being conducted.

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).
