Rajouri/Jammu, January 7

Authorities on Saturday started a public outreach programme in Rajouri district to instill a sense of security among the people in the wake of the recent terror strike that left six civilians dead.

Deputy Commissioner Vikas Kundal said, “Senior Army and police officers are part of the outreach programme to address the concerns of the civilian population. The outreach exercise was started with two meetings at Kotranka and Potha town.”

Kotranka is a remote subdivision of Rajouri district and remained highly infested with terrorism over two decades ago, while Potha is a village adjacent to Dhangri.

“To address the concern among the civil population, the government has started this confidence building measure exercise. More meetings are planned in different areas of the district in coming days,” the DC said.

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).
