Two days after a report that Pakistan had tipped off both India & US about an attack in J&K, an Army convoy was targeted in Pulwama Monday, killing 2 soldiers.
The blast took place at 5 am when a joint team of the CRPF's CoBRA unit and the state police were carrying out an operation in the forests of Seraikela Kharsawan district.
4 Army personnel, including a major, and a policeman were also killed in the encounter. 8 security personnel, including the DIG of south Kashmir, were injured.
Attack on CRPF convoy in Pulwama is something that the security establishment had long feared. More than terrorists, they say, IEDs are their biggest enemies.
In its first ever structured deal, Indian LPG companies are set to import almost 10% of their total needs from US. Trump has been pushing India to purchase more American energy.
Without a Congress revival, there can be no challenge to the BJP pan-nationally. Modi’s party is growing, and almost entirely at the cost of the Congress.
