Tarn Taran, August 9

Aam Aadmi Party’s zila Parishad member Munish Kumar alias Monu Cheema shot at his wife in Jhabal village on Tuesday. Vishali, sarpanch of Cheema Kalan village, has been admitted to a private hospital in Amritsar where her condition is said to be stable.

The incident took place when Vishali raised objection over Cheema’s illicit relations. Cheema had allegedly abducted the said woman a few days ago and the matter was brought to the notice of the police by Vishali’s relatives.

On Tuesday, when Cheema brought the said woman home, his wife raised objection and Monu in a fit of rage opened fire at her. A bullet hit her leg and she got injured. Jhabal SHO Prabhjit Singh said a case had been registered against Cheema and the woman.

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).
