New Delhi, May 12

Suspected terrorists today carried out a grenade attack on a police party in Samba district. There was no report of any casualty. The forces launched a search operation to nab the miscreants.

Officials said a grenade was hurled by unidentified persons at a police party which was engaged in checking vehicles at a naka near Nad on Samba-Udhampur road around 10 pm yesterday.

They said the grenade missed the intended target and exploded in an open area without causing any damage. The whole area was immediately cordoned off and a massive search operation continued to nab the suspected terrorists who carried out the attack, they 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).
