District Child Protection Officer Taranjit Singh said SGPC official Rajinder Singh Rubi had complained to the Deputy Commissioner about the begging menace around the shrine, following which this rescue operation was launched today.

“We have picked up around six children and a woman under the Jeevanjot programme and sent the children to Pingalwara,” said Taranjit Singh.

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).
