Srinagar, September 21

A combing operation launched by the Army after it detected suspicious movement in Uri along the Line of Control in J&K entered the third day on Tuesday, officials said.

All telecommunication facilities including internet in the border town remained suspended. A defence spokesman here said the search operation was going on in the area but did not elaborate if the forces had found anything to lend credence to the reports of major infiltration bid in the sector.

Officials said one soldier had sustained injuries in the “initial contact” with the adversary near the fence along the Line of Control, which had prompted the massive search operation to ensure that the infiltrators, if any, do not get to the hinterland. — PTI

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).
