In a joint operation, security personnel neutralised two Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorists in an encounter at Warpora village in Sopore town of Baramulla district on Friday.

The Kashmir Zone police said in a Twitter post that the forces had seized incriminating materials, including arms and ammunition, from the encounter site.

They have been identified as Warpora resident Fayaz Ahmad War, said to be an LeT commander, and Shaheen Ahmad Mir, alias Shaheen Molvi, of Cherpora Budgam. Fayaz was involved in several attacks and killings of civilians and security personnel.

During the house-to-house search, the location of the terrorists was established and they were asked to surrender, but they refused, the official said. Kashmir IGP Vijay Kumar congratulated the security forces for the successful operation.

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).
