Security forces averted a tragedy on Monday by timely detecting an improvised explosive device (IED) in Jammu and Kashmir’s Kulgam district, officials said.

A patrol party noticed a suspicious object on the Shopian-Anantnag road at Qaimoh in Kulgam district, which turned out to be an IED, they said.

A bomb disposal squad was rushed to the spot and defused the IED on the spot without causing any damage, the officials 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).
