The vehicular traffic on the historic Mughal Road in Poonch district was suspended after it was hit by a massive landslide, triggered by heavy rains, in Poshana area on Tuesday. Several hundred vehicles are stranded. Road clearance work was in process, officials said. Commuters were requested to know the status of the road from traffic units in Jammu and Srinagar before planning journey, they said.

The road, which connects Poonch and Rajouri districts of Jammu with Kashmir’s Shopian, is an alternative route to the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway.

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).
