Senior Punjab leader Sukhpal Singh Khaira has strongly condemned the brutal beating of an Army Colonel and his son by Punjab Police personnel, calling it yet another example of the lawlessness prevailing under the Bhagwant Mann-led government in state.

Despite clear involvement of police personnel in the attack, the FIR has been conveniently lodged against ‘unknown persons’, exposing the brazen misuse of power and shielding of guilty officers, he said.

Khaira lambasted the AAP government for turning Punjab into a police state, where custodial torture, high-handedness and suppression of fundamental rights have become a norm.

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).
