Srinagar, June 3

Two non-locals received minor injuries after militants hurled a grenade at their house in south Kashmir today. The grenade missed the target and exploded some distance away at Aglar village in Shopian district. Security forces were immediately rushed to the area.

Initially, a police officer said that the grenade attack had left four non-local labourers injured at Aglar Zainapora area of Shopian. But a tweet by the Kashmir Police a little later mentioned that two labourers were injured. “The area has been cordoned off. Further details shall follow,” he added.

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).
