India hopes to do better at the Paris Olympics
India clinched seven medals -- one gold, two silvers and four bronze -- at Tokyo 2020, and Paris will provide the country an opportunity to showcase much-needed consistency at the highest level.
Indian and Pakistan armies traded heavy fire on Sunday on the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch district after Pakistan indulged in unprovoked shelling and firing at Indian positions.
Defence Ministry spokesman Lt. Col. Manish Mehta said: "Pakistan Army initiated unprovoked and indiscriminate firing from 6.40 p.m. onwards in Poonch sector. Indian Army is retaliating strongly and effectively."
Two people — an army soldier on leave and his wife — were killed and two children of the couple injured in the Pakistani shelling in the same sector on Saturday.
