Two personnel of the Jammu & Kashmir Police were killed after an attack by militants in north Kashmir’s Bandipora district today, said officials.

After the attack, security forces have launched a cordon and search operation in the area. The slain policemen were identified by the officials as constables Mohammad Sultan and Fayaz Ahmad. The cops were injured in the attack and were taken to a hospital, where they died, the officials said. The police said the attack took place at Gulshan Chowk of Bandipora. “Terrorists fired upon a police party at Gulshan Chowk area of Bandipora. In this terror incident, two police personnel namely Selection Grade Constable Mohd Sultan & Constable Fayaz Ahmad were injured and later succumbed. The area was cordoned,” tweeted the police.

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).
