Srinagar, July 23

A woman was injured in a ceasefire violation along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Tangdhar sector of Kupwara district, the Army said.

They said the Pakistan army targeted civilian villages in forward areas along the LoC last night resulting in a woman getting bullet injury.

“A woman of Hajitra village was injured in Pakistani firing. The injured woman was rushed to the hospital and is currently stable,” the Army statement said.

There has been a spurt in ceasefire violation along the LoC in Kashmir and the Army has been maintaining that most of the times the firing is aimed at helping the infiltrators to sneak into the Valley. In the past two weeks, the Army had foiled at least two infiltration bids in Kupwara district in which three militants were killed.

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).
