A land-attack version of the missile was test-launched from a mobile autonomous launcher at Chandipur, Odisha, around 8.30 am
Its air force variant was fired in the afternoon when IAF’s SU-30MKI flew from Kalaikunda airbase and launched the missile towards an air-borne target

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).
