Cannot get uart output from a different microcontroller on nRF9160

Hi,

I am using the uart example from https://github.com/Rallare/fw-nrfconnect-nrf/blob/nrf9160_samples/samples/nrf9160/uart/src/main.c

I want to read serial data from another microcontroller through UART0 on nRF9160DK

I am connecting RX - P0.29 and TX P0.28

Moreover I have also added nrf9160dk_nrf9160ns.overlay and prj.conf files

nrf9160dk_nrf9160ns.overlay

&uart0 {
	current-speed = <115200>;
	status = "okay";
	tx-pin = <28>;
	rx-pin = <29>;
	rts-pin = <0xFFFFFFFF>;
	cts-pin = <0xFFFFFFFF>;
};

prj

CONFIG_SERIAL=y
CONFIG_TRUSTED_EXECUTION_NONSECURE=y
CONFIG_UART_INTERRUPT_DRIVEN=y
CONFIG_BSD_LIBRARY_TRACE_ENABLED=n
CONFIG_MAIN_STACK_SIZE=4096

static u8_t uart_buf[1024];

void uart_cb(struct device *x)
{
	uart_irq_update(x);
	int data_length = 0;

	if (uart_irq_rx_ready(x)) 
        {
		
                data_length = uart_fifo_read(x, uart_buf, sizeof(uart_buf));
		uart_buf[data_length] = 0;
	}
	printk("%s", uart_buf);
}

void main(void)
{
	struct device *uart = device_get_binding("UART_0");

	uart_irq_callback_set(uart, uart_cb);
	uart_irq_rx_enable(uart);
	printk("UART0 loopback start!\n");
	while (1) {
		k_cpu_idle();
	}
}

I cannot see anything on the terminal window even though I am sending data continuously

Please guide me through the same and let me know the necessary steps
