A woman was killed and two of her family members injured after Pakistani troops resorted to heavy shelling in areas near the Line of Control (LoC) in Uri sector of Jammu and Kashmir. The Indian Army retaliated to the Pakistani aggression. Pakistani troops violated the ceasefire along the LoC and targeted civilian areas in Uri sector of north Kashmir's Baramulla district, causing damage to structures and forcing people to flee. The injured were rushed to a hospital where a woman, identified as Nargis Begum, succumbed to injuries.
The Jammu and Kashmir administration on Saturday sacked six government employees, including five policemen, for their 'deep involvement in anti-national activities', officials said.
It has been delayed by two days because of incomplete infrastructural work.
